Digitized edition from print [produced by Statistics Canada]. “As in other countries, the primary stimulus and budgetary justification for collecting expenditure data is to monitor and periodically update and revise the Consumer Price Index. In addition to this, expenditure data classified by variables such as income, family type, city, etc., provide the basis for a variety of analytical investigations of the purchasing habits of families in Canada. The sample for 1978 covered urban and rural areas in the 10 provinces. Information from the survey is being processed and published in stages. There will be three volumes, including the present volume, published under the general title Family Expenditure in Canada, 1978. Volume 1, which has been previously published shows preliminary estimate for the same eight cities covered in the 1976 survey. This volume (Volume 2) shows information for the 14 cities included in the 1974 survey, and Charlottetown and Summerside in Prince Edward Island. Volume 3 will show information for both urban and rural areas in the 10 provinces for the first time since 1969"--Introd., p. viii. Issued also in print format.
