Monthly Survey of Manufacturing
Abstract
This publication provides estimated values of manufacturers' shipments, inventories
and orders by month. Data are presented for 22 major groups and selected individual
industries at the 3 and 4 digit level of detail, as defined by the 1980 Standard
Industrial Classification, as well as aggregates for durable, non-durable and
total manufacturing. Major group industry data are shown with and without adjustment
for seasonal variation. Unadjusted shipment totals by province and by major
groups within provinces are also shown. These data are used to monitor the business
cycle in the key manufacturing sector of the economy; to evaluate and develop
financial and industrial policy; and to provide market data at the detailed
industry level. Related information on manufacturers' opinions about employment
and production prospects over the next 3 months and on the current state of
inventories and orders are available from the Business Conditions Survey (BCS).
The survey is carried out at the beginning of January, April, July and October.
Responses are available about 5 days after the reference month in Statistics
Canada's The daily. The BCS balance of opinion data often gives a good guide
to the direction of change, at least a month in advance of the corresponding
quantitative data.
