“This report presents a comprehensive revision of the Industry Selling Price Indexes relating to Manufacturing industries in Canada, covering the period 1956-1968. The revision is the first major updating of the industries and commodities represented in the indexes and features the following changes: the introduction of the year 1961 as the time and weight base periods for the indexes, replacing the 1956 base; the adoption of the 1960 standard classification of industries and the corresponding definition and classification of establishments within them, in place of the 1948 Standard Industrial Classification; and an expansion in the number of commodity indexes, within the industry indexes, available to users. These changes bring the industry price indexes into line with most of the major economic statistical series published by DBS and facilitate their joint use”--Preface.
