The Farm Management Survey (FMS) is a unique source of data covering agricultural management practices and their impact on the environment. This presentation will:
Highlight results from the 2021 cycle of the FMS published on December 14th, 2022;
Describe how these data are collected;
Provide instructions on how to access data from the FMS.
The Farm Management Survey is held every 5 years as a follow up to the Census of Agriculture. The target population includes 7 different types of farms in Canada: dairy, beef, pork, poultry, field crops (such as wheat, corn, and soybeans), forage crops (such as hay and silage) and vegetable, fruit, berry, and nut crops farms. For each of these types of farms, the FMS covers multiple subjects related to the environmental impact of agriculture, such as: type of feed given to livestock, cattle housing management, manure storage and application, wetland management, crop fertilizer application, land management practices (tillage, pesticide use, soil erosion prevention, etc.), innovation on farm, use of new technologies, and many others.

Statistics Canada is always looking for innovative and creative ways to better serve Canadians. Building on the work done by other government departments and jurisdictions, Statistics Canada has developed a new chatbot and a live chat option for the 2026 Census.
The chatbot, an advanced computer program developed in-house at Statistics Canada, offers automated responses to frequently asked questions, while the live chat connects users with an agent for assistance when the chatbot cannot address their specific query. These features aim to improve and supplement the existing services provided to Canadians by creating a positive, secure online experience and assist respondents in their 2026 Census of Population questionnaire needs.
The Consultative Engagement Team will conduct usability tests to assess the quality and effectiveness of the chatbot and live chat options.
Statistics Canada is committed to respecting the privacy of consultation participants. All personal information created, held or collected by the agency is kept strictly confidential; it is protected by the Privacy Act. For more information on Statistics Canada's privacy policies, please consult the Privacy notice.
Results
Once available, summary results of this engagement initiative will be published online for public access.
This module provides a concise summary of selected Canadian economic events, as well as international and financial market developments by calendar month. It is intended to provide contextual information only to support users of the economic data published by Statistics Canada.

Your answers are confidential.
Statistics Canada is prohibited by law from releasing any information it collects which could identify any person, business, or organization, unless consent has been given by the respondent or as permitted by the Statistics Act.
Statistics Canada will use information from this survey for statistical purposes.
This section verifies or requests basic identifying information of the business or organization such as legal name, operating name (if applicable), contact information of the designated contact person, current operational status, and main activity(ies).
Legal Name
The legal name is one recognized by law, thus it is the name liable for pursuit or for debts incurred by the business or organization. In the case of a corporation, it is the legal name as fixed by its charter or the statute by which the corporation was created.
Modifications to the legal name should only be done to correct a spelling error or typo.
To indicate a legal name of another legal entity you should instead indicate it in question 3 by selecting 'Not currently operational' and then choosing the applicable reason and providing the legal name of this other entity along with any other requested information.
Operating Name
The operating name is a name the business or organization is commonly known as if different from its legal name. The operating name is synonymous with trade name.
Designated contact person
Verify or provide the requested contact information of the designated business or organization contact person. The designated contact person is the person who should receive this questionnaire. The designated contact person may not always be the one who actually completes the questionnaire. If different than the designated contact person, the contact information of the person completing the questionnaire can be indicated later in the questionnaire.
Current operational status
Verify or provide the current operational status of the business or organization identified by the legal and operating name in question 1. If indicating the operational status of the business or organization is 'Not currently operational' then indicate an applicable reason and provide the requested information.
Main activity
This question verifies the business or organization's current main activity as classified by the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is an industry classification system developed by the statistical agencies of Canada, Mexico and the United States. Created against the background of the North American Free Trade Agreement, it is designed to provide common definitions of the industrial structure of the three countries and a common statistical framework to facilitate the analysis of the three economies. NAICS is based on supply-side or production-oriented principles, to ensure that industrial data, classified to NAICS , are suitable for the analysis of production-related issues such as industrial performance.
The target entity for which NAICS is designed are businesses and other organizations engaged in the production of goods and services. They include farms, incorporated and unincorporated businesses and government business enterprises. They also include government institutions and agencies engaged in the production of marketed and non-marketed services, as well as organizations such as professional associations and unions and charitable or non-profit organizations and the employees of households.
The associated NAICS should reflect those activities conducted by the business or organizational units targeted by this questionnaire only, as identified in the 'Answering this questionnaire' section and which can be identified by the specified legal and operating name. The main activity is the activity which most defines the targeted business or organization's main purpose or reason for existence. For a business or organization that is for-profit, it is normally the activity that generates the majority of the revenue for the entity.
The NAICS classification contains a limited number of activity classifications; the associated classification might be applicable for this business or organization even if it is not exactly how you would describe this business or organization's main activity.
Please note that any modifications to the main activity through your response to this question might not necessarily be reflected prior to the transmitting of subsequent questionnaires and as a result they may not contain this updated information.
If the current NAICS associated with this business or organizations is not correct, please provide a brief description of the main activity and provide any additional information as requested.

Part-time employees should be included in the total, prorated to the amount of time worked when compared with the time worked by full-time employees (for example two part-time employees working half-time are equivalent to one full-time employee).
Refers to the regions where carriers provide transportation services. There are three breakdowns – domestic, transborder (Canada-US) and other international.
Domestic includes operations between points in Canada.
Transborder (Canada-US) includes operations between points in Canada and points in the United States (including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico).
Other international includes all other operations, (including between points outside of Canada).
Data reported must include both fixed wing and helicopter services, where:
Fixed wing
Means a power-driven, heavier-than-air aircraft, deriving its lift in flight chiefly from aerodynamic reactions on surfaces which remain fixed. An aircraft having wings fixed to the airplane fuselage and outspread in flight – that is non-rotating wings.
Helicopter
Means a rotary wing, heavier-than-air aircraft, supported in flight chiefly by the reactions of the air on one or more power-driven rotors on substantially vertical axes. A helicopter does not have conventional fixed wings, nor is it provided with a conventional propeller for forward thrust.
Scheduled services
Transportation of passengers or goods, or both, by an aircraft provided by an air carrier that operates the air service and that, directly or indirectly, sells some or all of its seats or part or all of its cargo space to the public on a price per seat, price per unit of mass or price per volume of cargo basis.
Enplaned passengers
Refers to revenue passengersFootnote 1 who board aircraft and surrender one or more flight coupons or other documents good for transportation over the itinerary specified in these coupons or documents.
Passenger-kilometres
Represents the carriage of one revenue passenger on each flight stage multiplied by the number of kilometres flown on that stage. Passenger-kilometres are obtained by totalling the number of kilometres flown by all passengers.
Let's take an example with two flight stages, where:
Flight stage A to B
Number of passengers = 5
Distance between points (km) = 161
Passenger-kilometres = 805
Flight stage B to C
Number of passengers = 4
Distance between points (km) = 322
Passenger-kilometres = 1,288
The total number of passenger-kilometres for the flights covering A to B and B to C is 2,093.
Conversion factor
To convert nautical miles (6 080 feet) into kilometres (km), multiply by 1.852.
To convert statute miles (5 280 feet) into kilometres (km), multiply by 1.609344.
Available seat-kilometres
Represents the aircraft kilometres flown on each flight stage multiplied by the number of seats available for use on that stage. This represents the total passenger carrying capacity offered. Seats not actually available for the carriage of passengers should be excluded.
Hours flown
Represents the block hours, in other words, the number of hours which elapsed between the time the aircraft started to move to commence a flight and the time the aircraft came to its final stop after the conclusion of a flight. Report the total number of block hours flown to the nearest hour.
Enplaned goods
Refers to all types of non-passenger traffic. It includes priority freight, freight, mail and excess baggage for which revenue is obtained. Enplaned goods should be reported to the nearest kilogram.
Conversion factor
To convert pounds (lbs.) into kilograms (kg), multiply by 0.453592.
Goods tonne-kilometres
Represents the carriage of one tonne of goods on each flight stage multiplied by the number of kilometres flown on that stage. Goods tonne-kilometres are obtained by totalling the number of kilometres flown with all tonnes of goods.
Let's take an example with two flight stages, where:
Flight stage A to B
Tonnes of goods = 5
Distance between points (km) = 161
Goods tonne-kilometres = 805
Flight stage B to C
Tonnes of goods = 4
Distance between points (km) = 322
Goods tonne-kilometres = 1,288
The total number of goods tonne-kilometres for the flights covering A to B and B to C is 2,093.
Conversion factor
To convert nautical miles (6 080 feet) into kilometres (km), multiply by 1.852.
To convert statute miles (5 280 feet) into kilometres (km), multiply by 1.609344.
Available tonne-kilometres
Represents the aircraft kilometres flown on each flight stage multiplied by the usable weight capacity of the aircraft. This represents the load carrying capacity offered for passengers and/or goods.
2. Scheduled services - revenue
Include fixed wing and helicopter services.
Passenger revenue
Refers to the revenue earned from the transportation of passengers on scheduled services. Include revenue from all surcharges (baggage, fuel, seat selection, and so on) that are retained by the air carrier. Exclude amounts such as taxes, navigation fees, security fees, and so on that are collected but passed on to other entities. Total passenger revenue should equal the passenger revenue from scheduled services from the first screen.
Goods revenue
Refers to the revenue earned from the transportation of goods on scheduled services. Exclude taxes such as the Goods and Services Tax (GST), Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) or Provincial Sales Tax (PST). Total goods revenue should equal the goods revenue from scheduled services from the first screen.
Refers to the regions where carriers provide transportation services. There are three breakdowns – domestic, transborder (Canada-US) and other international.
Domestic includes operations between points in Canada.
Transborder (Canada-US) includes operations between points in Canada and points in the United States (including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico).
Other international includes all other operations (including between points outside of Canada).
Data reported must include both fixed wing and helicopter services, where:
Fixed wing
Means a power-driven, heavier-than-air aircraft, deriving its lift in flight chiefly from aerodynamic reactions on surfaces which remain fixed. An aircraft having wings fixed to the airplane fuselage and outspread in flight – that is non-rotating wings.
Helicopter
Means a rotary wing, heavier-than-air aircraft, supported in flight chiefly by the reactions of the air on one or more power-driven rotors on substantially vertical axes. A helicopter does not have conventional fixed wings, nor is it provided with a conventional propeller for forward thrust.
Charter services
Transportation of passengers or goods, or both, by aircraft pursuant to a contract under which a person, other than the air carrier that operates the air service, or its agent, reserves a block of seats or part of the cargo space of an aircraft for the person's use or for resale to the public.
Include air ambulance service and the movement of people and goods to logging or heli-logging sites.
Exclude firefighting and heli-logging activities and the movement of people and goods to a firefighting site. (The former Transport Canada TP 8880 document "Starting a Commercial Air Service" outlining a list of activities which are specialty has been replaced with a new document TP 4711 "Air Operator Certification Manual" as of December 2020. A PDF version of volumes of this manual can be requested at: Air Operator Certification Manual – TP 4711)
Enplaned passengers
Refers to revenue passengersFootnote 1 who board aircraft and surrender one or more flight coupons or other documents good for transportation over the itinerary specified in these coupons or documents.
Passenger-kilometres
Represents the carriage of one revenue passenger on each flight stage multiplied by the number of kilometres flown on that stage. Passenger-kilometres are obtained by totalling the number of kilometres flown by all passengers.
Let's take an example with two flight stages, where:
Flight stage A to B
Number of passengers = 5
Distance between points (km) = 161
Passenger-kilometres = 805
Flight stage B to C
Number of passengers = 4
Distance between points (km) = 322
Passenger-kilometres = 1,288
The total number of passenger-kilometres for the flights covering A to B and B to C is 2,093.
Conversion factor
To convert nautical miles (6 080 feet) into kilometres (km), multiply by 1.852.
To convert statute miles (5 280 feet) into kilometres (km), multiply by 1.609344.
Hours flown
Represents the block hours, in other words, the number of hours which elapsed between the time the aircraft started to move to commence a flight and the time the aircraft came to its final stop after the conclusion of a flight. Report the total number of block hours flown to the nearest hour.
Enplaned goods
Refers to all types of non-passenger traffic. It includes priority freight, freight, mail and excess baggage for which revenue is obtained. Enplaned goods should be reported to the nearest kilogram.
Conversion factor
To convert pounds (lbs.) into kilograms (kg), multiply by 0.453592.
Goods tonne-kilometres
Represents the carriage of one tonne of goods on each flight stage multiplied by the number of kilometres flown on that stage. Goods tonne-kilometres are obtained by totalling the number of kilometres flown with all tonnes of goods.
Let's take an example with two flight stages, where:
Flight stage A to B
Tonnes of goods = 5
Distance between points (km) = 161
Goods tonne-kilometres = 805
Flight stage B to C
Tonnes of goods = 4
Distance between points (km) = 322
Goods tonne-kilometres = 1,288
The total number of goods tonne-kilometres for the flights covering A to B and B to C is 2,093.
Conversion factor
To convert nautical miles (6 080 feet) into kilometres (km), multiply by 1.852.
To convert statute miles (5 280 feet) into kilometres (km), multiply by 1.609344.
2. Charter services - revenue
Include fixed wing and helicopter services.
Passenger revenue
Refers to the revenue earned from the transportation of passengers on charter services. Include revenue from all surcharges (baggage, fuel, seat selection, and so on) that are retained by the air carrier. Exclude amounts such as taxes, navigation fees, security fees, and so on that are collected but passed on to other entities. Total passenger revenue should equal the passenger revenue from charter services from the first screen.
Goods revenue
Refers to the revenue earned from the transportation of goods on charter services. Exclude taxes such as the Goods and Services Tax (GST), Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) or Provincial Sales Tax (PST). Total goods revenue should equal the goods revenue from charter services from the first screen.

1. Introductions and opening remarks
Anil Arora, Chief Statistician of Canada
Chantal Bernier, Co-chair, Global Privacy and Cybersecurity Group, Dentons Canada LLP (Chair)
Mr. Arora opened the meeting by welcoming members to the sixth meeting of the Advisory Council on Ethics and Modernization of Microdata Access (ACEMMA). He thanked members and noted that their skills and expertise are of the utmost importance to Statistics Canada (StatCan), and essential as the agency continues to modernize in an ethical and responsible manner, while delivering better access to data. Mr. Arora thanked Chantal Bernier for taking on the role of Chair of the Council and provided roundtable introduction of StatCan attendees and presenters. Ms. Bernier provided roundtable introductions of Council members and of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada. Ms. Bernier concluded opening remarks in stating that the meeting will further explore a need for guided balance between individual right to privacy and public interest in result of data. Furthermore, the relationship between statistics and privacy is critical when data is explored within the framework of the four Gs: Gather, Guard, Grow and Give.
2. Updates from the Privacy Commissioner of Canada
Philippe Dufresne, Privacy Commissioner of Canada
Mr. Dufresne noted that there is a need to protect privacy and to achieve public interest. Canadians want the ability to fully participate in society and the digital world. As a result, Canadians and their institutions need to be able to seize the benefits of technology and innovation in the private and public sectors. To achieve this, modernized laws are required both with respect to private and public sector. Of equal importance is the continued collaboration and work between the two agencies. Three key themes were discussed:
Privacy as a fundamental right
Privacy in support of the public interest and Canada's innovation and competitiveness
Privacy as an accelerator of Canadians' trust in their institutions
Mr. Dufresne noted that the collection of information must be limited to strictly what is necessary and proportional to achieve the objectives of an organization. It is equally important to train individuals handling the information on the importance of protecting privacy and having necessary mechanisms put in place to ensure policies and practices are respected on an ongoing basis. When individuals trust that their rights will be protected, they feel confident in participating freely in the digital economy and collaborating with their government and sharing information with the government.
Council members were pleased with the presentation provided by the Privacy Commissioner. Members emphasized the importance of working towards a culture of privacy in which Canadians feel that their privacy is protected while educating them to understand how and why their information is being sought and used. Companies must consider privacy at the front end to ensure they are being transparent regarding the purpose of information being collected and obtaining meaningful consent. Members agreed that the way forward is to continue to reform privacy laws in a manner that recognizes and protect privacy as a fundamental right, while at the same time supporting the public interest and innovation. It is of utmost importance to carry out both concepts in an integrated and balanced manner.
3. Data Ethics – General updates, refinement, and implementation of data ethics principles in the context of the necessity and proportionality framework
Martin Beaulieu, Chief, International Cooperation and Methodology Innovation Centre, Statistics Canada
Mr. Beaulieu shared progress and updates on activities on behalf of the Data Ethics Secretariat since their last presentation at the April 2022 meeting. A brief overview and summary were provided on the following concepts: the Necessity and Proportionality (N&P) Framework, the role of the Data Ethics Secretariat within StatCan, and the foundations of ethical considerations and the Six Guiding Principles. The Secretariat's next steps include integrating and refining existing processes, continuing communication efforts with partners, refining documentation on the guiding principles and the Trust Centre, developing training materials, and conducting research on specific topics.
Council members were pleased with the presentation. Members were impressed with Data Ethics Secretariat's structure and due diligence. The framework and guiding principles put into place allows for Canadians to trust StatCan as an agency regarding its ethical guidelines and principles. Members advised that it may be of interest for the Secretariat to share the questionnaire used for the guiding principles externally once the new version is finalized. Regarding areas for improvement, members expressed the following: (1) To be more specific of what the data will be collected and used for, and (2) With the recognition that the framework and guidelines will continue to be refined, the agency should publicize them more and the incredible work that Canada does regarding protection of data.
4. Disaggregated Data Action Plan
Tony Labillois, Director General, Justice, Diversity and Population Statistics Branch, Statistics Canada
Ashley Edwards, Acting Chief, Diversity and Sociocultural Statistics Division, Statistics Canada
Mr. Labillois and Ms. Edwards shared progress and updates on activities regarding the Disaggregated Data Action Plan (DDAP) on behalf of the DDAP Secretariat. A brief overview and summary were provided on the following concepts: DDAP's governance structure, framework, and accomplishments throughout the past year. The Secretariat's next steps include to continue engagement and communication to build trust and social license by carrying various activities such as engaging with Canadians on how to collect, continue consultations with stakeholders and key players, analyze and disseminate data, maintain an active presence on social media, develop and promote statistical standards at StatCan, develop additional visual tools to provide access to data, and expand disaggregated data assets. Council members were asked to reflect on the following questions and considerations:
DDAP data is data for good. What can we do to reinforce that message?
DDAP is anchored to Statistics Canada frameworks such as Necessity and Proportionality. Are there other examples of publicly trusted guidelines that we should be considering?
How can DDAP further position Statistics Canada among the most trusted of public institutions? Who are the influencers and how do we better reach them? What are important key messages?
What groups or communities can we target our trust message to that will result in the greatest return?
Council members were pleased with the presentation from DDAP and addressed several of the questions posed. Members emphasized the importance to continue consultations with stakeholders and key players in the decision-making process and program design, alongside informing. Providing context is key when reinforcing the concept that DDAP data is data for good, and to remain diligent of the messaging surrounding the results published from the program. Regarding key influencers, members noted the United Nations (UN) and other international bodies. Regarding groups and communities to target, members noted that sociologists may be a target of interest as a source of information and consultation, as they analyze society and alert on movements congregating around certain demographics.
5. Pilot project granting vDL access to researcher located in the United States (US)
Geneviève Jourdain, Director, Data Access Division, Statistics Canada
Ms. Jourdain shared an update on the pilot project granting vDL access to a researcher located in the US. The research project is in partnership with the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC). It was noted that access to the vDL has been granted to the researcher and that additional steps are to follow. Council members had no follow up questions and requested an update on the pilot project at the next Advisory Council meeting.
6. Roundtable and closing remarks
Anil Arora, Chief Statistician of Canada
Mr. Arora and Ms. Bernier thanked members and invited them to share their final thoughts.
Advisory Council action items
Action Items:
Next meeting: October 2023 (tentatively).

Definitions
What are Capital Expenditures?
Capital Expenditures are the gross expenditures on fixed assets for use in the operations of your organization or for lease or rent to others. Gross expenditures are expenditures before deducting proceeds from disposals, and credits (capital grants, donations, government assistance and investment tax credits).
Fixed assets are also known as capital assets or property, plant and equipment. They are items with a useful life of more than one year and are not purchased for resale but rather for use in the entity's production of goods and services.
Examples are buildings, vehicles, leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures, machinery, and computer software.
Include:
Modifications, acquisitions and major renovations
Capital costs such as feasibility studies, architectural, legal, installation and engineering fees
Subsidies and grants received and used in additions to fixed assets and construction-in-progress during the period
Capitalized interest charges on loans with which capital projects are financed
Work done by own labour force
Additions to capital work in progress (construction-in-progress) accounts.
Exclude:
Transfers from capital work in progress (construction-in-progress) to fixed assets accounts
Assets associated with the acquisition of companies
Property developed for sale and machinery, or equipment acquired for sale (inventory).
How to Treat Leases
Include:
assets acquired as a lessee through either a capital or financial lease;
assets acquired for lease to others as an operating lease.
Exclude:
operating leases acquired as a lessee and capitalized to right-of-use assets in accordance with IFRS 16 (International Financial Reporting Standards)
assets acquired for lease to others, either as a capital or financial lease.
Non-Capital Repair and Maintenance Expenditures
This question represents the repair and maintenance of assets in contrast to the acquisition of assets or the renovation of assets.
Non-capitalized repair and maintenance expenditures are that portion of current or operating expenditures charged against revenue in the year incurred and made for the purpose of keeping the stock of fixed assets in good working condition during the life originally intended.
Repair and maintenance allow such fixed assets to operate at output producing capacity during the asset life without undue amounts of down time (preventive function). A second purpose is the returning of any portion of the stock of fixed assets into a state of good working condition after any malfunctioning or reduced efficiency for whatever reason (curative function) short of replacement of such fixed assets or adding significantly to their life or productive efficiency.
Maintenance expenditures on buildings and other structures may include the routine care of assets such as janitorial services, snow removal and/or salting and sanding by the firm's own employees or persons outside the firm's employ.
Maintenance expenditures on machinery and equipment may include oil change and lubrication of vehicles and machinery.
Include:
Gross non-capital repair and maintenance expenditures on non-residential buildings, other structures and on machinery and equipment;
Value of repair work done by your own employees as well as payments to persons outside your employ;
Building maintenance such as janitorial services, snow removal and sanding;
Equipment maintenance such as oil changes and lubrication of vehicles and other machinery.
Industry characteristics
New Assets: Report capital expenditures for acquisitions of new assets including the portion of work in progress for the current year. Include imports of used assets since they represent newly acquired assets for the Canadian economy.
Purchase of Used Canadian Assets: The object of our survey is to measure the acquisitions of new fixed assets separately from used fixed assets in the Canadian economy as a whole. This is because the acquisition of used assets does not increase the total inventory of fixed assets, it only transfers them within the Canadian economy.
Renovation, Retrofit, Refurbishing, Overhauling and Restoration: Report capital expenditures for existing assets being upgraded, renovated, retrofitted, refurbished, overhauled or restored.
Expected Useful Life of Assets: Report the expected life of the asset in years. If you have purchased similar assets with varying expected useful lives, please combine the data and provide a weighted average for the number of years, or the expected useful life of the asset with the largest value.
Land: Capital expenditures for land should include all costs associated with the purchase of the land that are not amortized or depreciated. Improvements of land should be reported in Non-Residential Construction.
Residential Construction: Capital expenditures incurred during the reporting period for residential structures (on a contracted basis and/or by your own employees).
Include the housing portion of multi-purpose projects and of townsites.
Exclude buildings that have accommodation units without self contained or exclusive use of bathroom and kitchen facilities (e.g., some student and senior citizens residences) and associated expenditures on services.
Non-Residential Construction: Capital expenditures incurred during the reporting period for non-residential building and engineering construction (on a contracted basis and/or by your own employees) whether for your own use or rent to others. Construction structures should be classified to an asset according to its principal use unless it is a multi-purpose structure where we would like you to separate the components. The cost of any machinery and equipment which is an integral or built-in feature of the structure (i.e. elevators, heating equipment, sprinkler systems, environmental controls, intercom systems, etc.) should be reported as part of that structure as well as landscaping, associated parking lots, etc.
Roads, bridges, sewers, electric power lines, underground cables, etc.;
The cost of demolition of buildings, land servicing and site preparation;
Leasehold and land improvements.
Additions to work in progress;
Townsite facilities such as streets, sewers, stores and schools;

Computers (hardware only), broadcasting, telecommunications and other information and communication technologies equipment;
Motors, generators, transformers;
Any capitalized tooling expenses;
Acquisitions to work in progress;
Progress payments paid out before delivery in the year in which such payments are made;
Any balance owing or holdbacks should be reported in the year the cost is incurred.
Oil and Gas and Mineral Exploration: These expenditures include mineral rights fees and retention costs, geological, geophysical and seismic expenses, exploration drilling, and other costs incurred during the reporting period in order to determine whether mineral, oil or gas reserves exist and can be exploited commercially. Report gross expenditures, before deducting any incentive grants. Exclude the cost of land and business acquisitions.
Work in Progress: Work in progress represents accumulated costs since the start of capital projects which are intended to be capitalized upon completion.
Cost component of expenditures – internal costs
Internal construction or development costs: (such as material and labour) that are capitalized as part of the asset costs (such as own employee installation or erection of fixed assets, systems and software development staff).
Include all materials and supplies provided free to contractors and all architects, engineering and consultants fees and similar services.
Salaries and Wages: Show the total value of salaries and wages paid to your employees. Salaries and wages are gross earnings before deductions such as income tax and include incentive bonuses and vacation pay but exclude fringe benefits.
Materials and Supplies: Report total cost of materials and supplies used by your own employees and those provided free to contractors relating to the expenditures reported.
Other Charges: Examples of other charges are insurance, power, telephone and also architectural, legal, and engineering fees considered to be applicable to the expenditures reported.
Source of Funding Breakdown
Sources of funding of capital expenditures include grants, subsidies, donations, credit and venture capital from external sources, as well as internal funding.
Environmental protection and resource management expenditures
These questions cover the capital and repair expenditures made by this organization in order to prevent, reduce or eliminate pollution and other forms of degradation of the environment while performing your production activity, i.e., within your organization. Expenditures made to restore the environment from a degraded state are included. It can also be expenditures made for resource management activities which result in the more efficient use of natural resources, thus safeguarding against their depletion or the use of goods that have been adapted to be significantly less energy or resource intensive than the industry standard. This includes expenditures that this specific operation incurred for pollution prevention and abatement and control. Exclude expenditures made to improve employee health, workplace safety, and site beautification. Please report all environmental protection or resource management expenditures whether or not they are in response to current or anticipated Canadian or international regulations, conventions or voluntary agreements.
Specific activities are: Solid waste management; Wastewater management; Air pollution management; Protection and remediation of soil, groundwater and surface water; Protection of biodiversity and habitat; Noise and vibration abatement; Protection against radiation; Heat or energy savings and management; Fuel efficient vehicles and transportation goods or technologies; Production of energy from renewable sources; Renewable energy; Production of nuclear energy; and any other environmental protection or resource management activities.

Disposal and sales of fixed assets
Selling price
The total value, or the sales of fixed assets which were disposed of or sold, even if traded in for credit in the acquisition or purchase of new fixed assets. When land and buildings are sold together, please report the selling price of the land separately, along with other land sales.
Gross book value
This value should represent total capital expenditures for an asset, at and since the time of original construction or purchase, including all subsequent capital expenditures for the purpose of modernization, expansion, etc. Any subsidies received should not be subtracted.
Age
Report the age of the fixed asset at the time of disposal.
If you have disposed of or sold similar assets of varying ages, report them separately or combine the data and provide a weighted average for the ages.

News release
March 27, 2023 | Ottawa, Ontario
Today, Statistics Canada is releasing results from the second cycle of the Canadian COVID-19 Antibody and Health Survey (CCAHS). This survey provides a nationally representative measure of the population with antibodies to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Between April and August 2022, 54% of Canadian adults – or about 16.4 million Canadians – had antibodies indicating a past infection to SARS-CoV-2. That is more than 20 times higher than the 2.6% observed in early 2021. In addition, by the same time, four out of ten Canadians were unaware that they ever had COVID-19.
Statistics Canada partnered with the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) and the COVID-19 Immunity Task Force (CITF) to conduct this survey to better understand the spread and longer-term impacts of COVID-19, including long-term symptoms following an infection. The CCAHS is the largest nationally comprehensive study on COVID-19 antibodies from Canadian adults. The data are based on dried blood spot (DBS) samples and survey results collected between April and August 2022.
Between April and August 2022, nearly all Canadian adults (98.1%) had antibodies against SARS-CoV-2, acquired through vaccination, a previous infection or both. The survey also suggests that while younger Canadians were more likely to have been infected since the start of the pandemic, older Canadians living in private dwellings were more likely to be unaware of their infection. Racialized, non-Indigenous Canadians (60.1%) were more likely to have antibodies from infection than non-racialized, non-Indigenous Canadians (51.8%).
Across all ten provinces, over 100,000 randomly selected Canadians aged 18 years and older received invitations from Statistics Canada to participate in the survey. Respondents received a kit in the mail. Among the items inside was a link to the online survey with questions related to their general health, any chronic symptoms and conditions, their COVID-19 history and related symptoms, vaccination status, access to the healthcare system and medication use.
In addition to the invitations to complete the online survey, respondents were provided with DBS test kits, with step-by-step instructions, to test for COVID-19 antibodies as well as a saliva test kit to test for current or recent infections. The DBS tests were used to estimate the number of Canadian adults who have infection-acquired and/or vaccine-induced antibodies to SARS-CoV-2. Respondents who chose to conduct the DBS test component received a personalized report of their results.
Quotes
"We appreciate the participation of those who took part in this survey on COVID-19. Increasing our understanding of COVID-19, including its longer-term symptoms and effects, is key to addressing and recovering from the pandemic. Your involvement provided valuable insights to better understand the extent of COVID-19 across the country and help support those who are experiencing longer term symptoms."
The Honourable Jean-Yves Duclos, Minister of Health
"These nationally representative results are complementary to results of the COVID-19 Immunity Task Force's seroprevalence modelling based on more than twenty studies and are an important additional dataset to integrate into our monthly estimates. These data also reaffirm findings that racialized Canadians have had a greater incidence of COVID-19 than non-racialized Canadians, pointing to systemic issues that must be addressed now."
Catherine Hankins, Co-Chair, COVID-19 Immunity Task Force
"We thank Canadians for continuing to participate in this unique survey. The results are used by our partners, the Public Health Agency of Canada, the COVID-19 Immunity Task Force, as well as health professionals, researchers and policy makers across the country to better understand the social, health and economic impacts of COVID-19 on the well-being of Canadians."
Anil Arora, Chief Statistician of Canada
Quick facts
CCAHS (Cycle 1) started in 2020 and found that few Canadians had antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in early 2021.
Over 100,000 Canadians aged 18 years and older across the ten provinces were randomly selected to create a representative sample and ensure that the results are generalizable to the Canadian adult population.
The CCAHS (Cycle 2) Access to Health Care portion of the survey will provide further information in May 2023.
A follow-up survey to the CCAHS (Cycle 2) will be launched in spring 2023.

Context
The Government of Canada is implementing a comprehensive agenda focused on addressing the causes of plastic pollution and waste along the lifecycle of plastics. The agenda is also being supported by efforts from other levels of government, businesses and community partners. Data on plastics and plastic waste management is necessary to enable the Government of Canada and its partners to measure progress towards its commitments. To this end, we require a comprehensive system of plastics data collection and material flow account to characterize the production, use and fate of materials and products containing plastics in Canada.
Specific plastic resins questions
The questions in this annex were added to the Annual Survey of Manufacturing Industries to get relevant information on plastic resins produced and used by the manufacturing sector.
