4. Verify or provide the current main activity of the business or organization identified by the legal and operating name above.

Note: The described activity was assigned using the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).

This question verifies the business or organization's current main activity as classified by the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). The 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 classes; 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.

The following is the detailed description including any applicable examples or exclusions for the classification currently associated with this business or organization.

Notes to the Future-Oriented Statement of Operations (unaudited) for the year ending March 31

1. Methodology and significant assumptions

The Future-Oriented Statement of Operations has been prepared on the basis of government priorities and the plans of Statistics Canada (the agency) as described in the 2023-24 Departmental Plan.

The information in the forecasted results for fiscal year 2022-23 is based on actual results as at October 31, 2022 and on forecasts for the remainder of the fiscal year. Forecasts have been made for the planned results for fiscal year 2023-24.

The main assumptions underlying the forecasts are as follows:

  • The agency's activities will remain substantially the same as the previous year.
  • Expenses and revenues, including the determination of amounts internal and external to the government, are based on historical trends and known cyclical changes.

These assumptions are made as at November 30, 2022.

2. Variations and changes to the forecast financial information

Although every attempt has been made to forecast final results for the remainder of 2022-23 and for 2023-24, actual results achieved for both years are likely to differ from the forecasted information presented, and this variation could be material.

In preparing this Future-Oriented Statement of Operations, the agency established estimates and assumptions about the future. These estimates and assumptions may differ from the subsequent actual results. Estimates and assumptions are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, and are continually evaluated.

Factors that could lead to material differences between the Future-Oriented Statement of Operations and the historical financial statements include:

  • the timing and the amount of acquisitions and disposals of property which may affect gains, losses and amortization expense;
  • the implementation of new collective agreements;
  • economic conditions, which may affect both the amount of revenue earned and the collectability of receivables; and
  • other changes to the operating budget, such as new initiatives or technical adjustments made later in the fiscal year.

After the Departmental Plan is tabled in Parliament, the agency will not be updating the forecasts for any changes in financial resources made in ensuing supplementary estimates. Variances will be explained in the Departmental Results Report.

3. Summary of significant accounting policies

The Future-Oriented Statement of Operations has been prepared using the Government of Canada's accounting policies in effect for fiscal year 2022-23, and is based on Canadian public sector accounting standards. The presentation and results using the stated accounting policies do not result in any significant differences from Canadian public sector accounting standards.

Significant accounting policies are as follows:

(a) Expenses

Transfer payments are recorded as an expense in the year the transfer is authorized, and all eligibility criteria have been met by the recipient.

Other expenses are generally recorded when goods are received or services are rendered and include expenses related to personnel, professional and special services, repair and maintenance, utilities, materials and supplies, as well as amortization of tangible capital assets. Provisions to reflect changes in the value of assets or liabilities, such as provisions for bad debts, advances and inventory obsolescence, as well as utilization of inventories and prepaid expenses, and other are also included in other expenses.

(b) Revenues

Revenues received for special statistical services are recorded as deferred revenue upon receipt. These amounts are recognized as revenue in the period in which the services are rendered and related expenses are incurred.

Deferred revenue consists of amounts received in advance of the delivery of goods and rendering of services that will be recognized as revenue in a subsequent fiscal year as it is earned.

Other revenues are recognized in the period the event giving rise to the revenues occurred.

Revenues that are non-respendable are not available to discharge the agency's liabilities. While the Chief Statistician is expected to maintain accounting control, he has no authority over the disposition of non-respendable revenues. As a result, non-respendable revenues are considered to be earned on behalf of the Government of Canada and are therefore presented as a reduction of the agency's gross revenues.

4. Parliamentary authorities

The agency is financed in part by the Government of Canada through parliamentary authorities. Financial reporting of authorities provided to the agency differs from financial reporting according to generally accepted accounting principles because authorities are based mainly on cash flow requirements. Items recognized in the Future-Oriented Statement of Operations in one year may be funded through parliamentary authorities in prior, current or future years. Accordingly, the agency has a different net cost of operations for the year on a government funding basis than on an accrual accounting basis. The differences are reconciled in the following tables:

(a) Reconciliation of net cost of operations to requested authorities (in thousands of dollars)

Release date: February 2, 2023

Table of Contents

Acknowledgments

A first version of the database was made possible because of the open data availability, data agreements and partnerships across several municipalities and provinces across Canada. More specifically we would like to acknowledge the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry for their support of our project and ongoing data partnerships with Statistics Canada. Further we would like to acknowledge the City of Surrey, for their open data availability of very high resolution orthophotos.

1. Overview

For the purpose of exploring open data for official statistics and to support geospatial research across various domains, the Agriculture Division and Data Science Division undertook a project to use earth observation data for the modernization of conventional surveys conducted at Statistics Canada with a collection of high-resolution earth observation sources released as open data by various levels of government within CanadaFootnote 1. This data was created in response to Statistics Canada's modernization initiatives that uses leading-edge methods, data integration and advanced technologies to reduce the response burden on farmers, and as a response the ODG is used to facilitate and train with machine learning models aimed at automatization of collecting greenhouse information across Canada. This is in an effort in to reduce response burden of greenhouse operators in Canada.

This document details the process of collecting, processing, and standardizing the earth observation and the imageries derived product of digitized greenhouses with the first version of Open Database of Greenhouses (ODG), which is made available under the Open Government Licence – CanadaFootnote 2.

In the first version (version 1.0), the ODG contains 2,476 individual records across ten municipalities and four provinces. The database is expected to be updated periodically as new open datasets become available. The ODG is provided as a geographic shapefile.

This dataset is released as part of the Linkable Open Data Environment (LODE). The LODE is an initiative that aims at enhancing the use and harmonization of open data from authoritative sources by providing a collection of datasets released under a single licence, as well as open-source code to link these datasets together. Access to the LODE datasets and code are available through the Statistics Canada website and can be found at:

The Linkable Open Data Environment

2. Data sources

Multiple data sources were collected to create the ODG. The data providers include multiple levels of government or were provided with existing companies who hold a National Standing OfferFootnote 3 with the Federal Government, including attribution to each of these sources as per the license requirements.

Details on the data sources are provided in Table 1 below. There are a total of 10 municipalities covered in 4 provinces.

For further information on the individual licences, users should consult directly with the information provided on the open data portals of the various data providers. In addition to openly licensed databases, the ODG also includes a set of publicly available listings of educational facilities for which permission to include was granted by the data providers.

3. Reference period

The data sources in Table 1 list the most recent date which the source was available at time of access or provided through various other partnerships or agreements and used for digitizing greenhouses or used within the machine learning models for automatization of greenhouses. The data is provided for years 2017-2021 across various sources and locations. Data was accessed or downloaded between the years 2019-2022.

4. Geography

The ODG geographic frame is referenced by regions provided by the open data portals of the cities of Burnaby, Surrey, and Chilliwack, and the Township of Langley as outlined in the Data Sources Section. The named regions listed in Table 1 and the ODG reference Statistics Canada's census agricultural regions (CAR) (Statistics Canada Geographic Boundaries: 2021 Census – Boundary files). These sources are not solely limited to the Statistics Canada geographic bounds for any one specific area and may extend into neighboring municipalities. The product may also not be complete for one specific region listed in Table 1 or limited to the bounds based on Statistics Canadas geographic regions.

Geographic Representation

The Open Database of Greenhouses is available on the Statistics Canada website in the following geographic representation:

  • Projection: Lambert conformal conic
  • False easting: 6200000.000000
  • False northing: 3000000.000000
  • Central meridian: -91.866667
  • Standard parallel 1: 49.000000
  • Standard parallel 2: 77.000000
  • Latitude of origin: 63.390675
  • Linear unit: metre (1.000000)
  • Datum: North American 1983 (NAD83)
  • Prime meridian: Greenwich
  • Angular unit: degree
  • Spheroid: GRS 1980

The North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83) is an adjustment of the 1927 datum (NAD27) that reflects the higher accuracy of geodetic surveying.

5. Target Population

Statistics Canada defines a greenhouse and greenhouse productsFootnote 4 as a space for growing seedlings, potted plants, bedding plants, cuttings and other propagating material, vegetables and fruit grown for sale in a permanent, artificially heated enclosed structure made of plastic, plexiglass, poly-film or glass. Any plants that start cultivation in a greenhouse but are finished before sales in a nursery should be considered a nursery product.

Additionally, a nursery and nursery products are defined as a diverse range of non-edible, living plant material grown 'in field' or in containers outdoors and sold with their root system intact. Plants range from tree seedlings to full-grown trees. Include annual and perennial plants.

As a result of this definition additional buildings which do not fit into the greenhouse definition, as outlined above, can possibly be included in the dataset based on their common visual characteristics. The database does not include linkages to business information, which would differentiate agricultural versus non-agricultural facilities.

The database was created by digitizing greenhouses in provided earth observation imagery, with reference to labelled greenhouses in Google Earth Pro. Minimal editing and validation is done to the shape of buildings digitized and validation of buildings captured in the database have similar visual characteristics. Greenhouses identified within the dataset do not discriminate greenhouse type, what is growing inside, and are not labelled different based on any features that could help classify them.

The database does not include linkages to business information or refer to Statistics Canada surveys, business registers, taxes or other sources. This is to enable the database to maintain an open database component.

6. Compilation methodology

The creation of the ODG comprised of two main processing steps: first, the processing of earth observation data and, second, the creation and formatting of the dataset overlaying the earth observation data and the mapping of the original dataset attributes to standard variable (column) names. A data dictionary of the variables used is provided in section 7. To compile the data into the final geographic shapefile database:

  • Earth observation data was extracted, uncompressed and converted to TIF format if not originally in this format once acquired.
  • Satellite imagery sources were pansharpened from 1.5 meters to 50cm pixel resolution using PCI Geomatica, Pansharpening toolbox and the pansharpening band included in the dataset when acquired.
  • Imagery was visualized into GIS software, and a new geographic shapefile was created for each earth observation dataset. Greenhouses visually comparable to known greenhouses were identified in the earth observation, and a new record was created within the shapefile.
  • Concatenated geographic datasets were created to represent each dataset used within each municipality where data was acquired.

The original data fields were the unique ID and Shape identified automatically by the software. New fields were created to provide information on the imagery data source, centroid location and province. While effort was made to ensure all greenhouses were identified and other building types were not included, some buildings may be misidentified, or greenhouses could have been missed from the source image. Should any such errors be reported, they will be corrected in future versions of the ODG.

In general, the data included in the ODG is due to visual inspection only and is not linked to official databases, surveys, or private sources.

Geocoding

Records in the ODG v1.0 include latitude, longitude, province, or territory and in some cases municipal information, when applicable. Records do not include further locational information such as address or postal code.

Data standardization

Due to the different standards adopted in the original data, steps taken to standardize the data may include some errors. The key principles of the methodology used were the avoidance of false positives and of significant alterations to the data. The methodology and limitations of each technique are described below. Simple cleaning techniques, such as removal of whitespace characters and punctuation removal, are omitted from discussion.

Comparisons with Greenhouse, Sod and Nursery Survey

The Statistics Canada's Annual Greenhouse Sod and Nursery Survey (GSNA) is a collection of information of greenhouse productions, nursery stocks and sod produced in Canada and is frequently used to perform market trend analysis. Since the GSNA does not use information from this data source, nor does the ODG use data from the GSNA, it is unlikely that the information and total area for a province or region are comparable. The data are kept separate from each other to allow the ODG to be published and used by the public through the open data licence.

Removal of duplicates

For the ODG only entries that seemed to be clear duplicates, overlapping greenhouse shapes, were chosen for removal.

8. Data accuracy

All greenhouses digitized in the ODG were in reference to the imagery within a certain date range, provided by government, or open-source portals on public webpages. In general, other than processing and digitization of the features in the dataset, the imagery was used as is and can therefore create errors in the final database where features could not be identified correctly in some cases. Given the nature of the data acquisition and creation of the database, there is the possibility of some errors to be found in the final geographic product.

I. Introduction

A. Description

The Tuition and Living Accommodation Costs (TLAC) survey collects data for full-time students in degree programs at Canadian public postsecondary institutions. The survey was developed to provide an overview of tuition and additional compulsory fees, and living accommodation costs that students can expect to pay for an academic year.

TLAC survey data:

  • provides stakeholders, the public and students with annual tuition costs and changes in tuition fees from the previous year
  • contributes to a better understanding of the costs to obtain a degree
  • contributes to education policy development
  • contributes to the Consumer Price Index
  • facilitates interprovincial comparisons
  • facilitates comparisons between institutions

B. Reference period

2023/2024 academic year (September to April)

C. Population

The target population is all publicly funded degree-granting institutions (universities and colleges) in Canada.

The survey target population includes institutions that have degree-granting status for the academic year 2023/2024. Institutions that do not have degree-granting status are excluded even if they provide portions of programs that lead to a degree granted by another institution. The survey is limited to institutions whose operations are primarily funded by provincial governments. Institutions that do not receive grants from Education ministries or departments, and institutions that receive grants only from Health ministries and departments are excluded.

D. Fields of study

The field of study classification for both undergraduate and graduate programs are adapted from the 2016 Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP), Statistics Canada's standard for field of study classification. The CIP's structure comprises several groupings developed jointly by Statistics Canada and the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) in the USA. It is based on work undertaken as part of the creation of the North American Product Classification System (NAPCS) by Canada, the United States and Mexico.

TLAC CIP groupings for Undergraduate programs:

  • Education
  • Visual and Performing Arts, and Communications Technologies
  • Humanities
  • Social and Behavioural Sciences, and Legal Studies
  • Law
  • Business, Management and Public Administration
  • Physical and Life Sciences and Technologies
  • Mathematics, Computer and Information Sciences
  • Engineering
  • Architecture
  • Agriculture, Natural Resources and Conservation
  • Dentistry
  • Medicine
  • Nursing
  • Pharmacy

  • Personal, Protective and Transportation Services
  • Other

TLAC CIP groupings for Graduate programs:

Includes all of the undergraduate program groupings with the exception of Medicine and the addition of:

  • Executive MBA
  • Regular MBA

Refer to Appendix A: CIP

Note: Dental, Medical and Veterinary Residency Programs offered in teaching hospitals and similar locations that may lead to advanced professional certification are excluded.

E. Submission Date

The completed questionnaire must be returned by June 9, 2023 by uploading the file back in the Secure Internet Site (E-File transfer Service).

If you require further information or assistance with completing the questionnaire, please contact: statcan.education-education.statcan@canada.ca.

II. Instructions

General

Tuition fee tables disseminated by Statistics Canada are based on an academic year for full-time students with a full course load in degree programs, regardless of the number of credits.

Tuition should be reported based on the academic year (8 months, September to April) or semester (4 months) regardless of the number of credits. If it is not possible to provide tuition data for a semester or academic year, tuition should be reported per credit.

Final fees should be reported. If they have not yet been determined, report an estimate and check the box on the questionnaire to state that these are estimated fees for 2023/2024.

Part A: Tuition fees for full-time students

How to Report Tuition Fees:

  1. Report tuition fees for full-time students in degree programs only. The degree must be conferred by your institution, which means that students start and complete their degree at your institution. DO NOT include associate degrees, diplomas and certificates.
  2. Verify and update the previous year data (2022/2023) on each page if required.
  3. Report fees with decimals, NO commas. Example 2415.45.
  4. Quebec, Nova-Scotia and Newfoundland and Labrador: Lower fees represent Canadian students that have a permanent address in the province (in-province students) and the Upper fees represent Canadian students with an out-of-province permanent address.
  5. Academic year (8 months, September to April): When tuition is reported based on the academic year, report the full cost of the program regardless of the number of credits.
  6. Semester (4 months): When tuition is reported based on semester, report the full cost of the semester regardless of the number of credits. Semester fees will be multiplied by two to calculate tuition for the academic year (8 months).
  7. Per Credit: Only report per credit if you cannot report based on semester or academic year regardless of the number of credits. We assume 30 credits as the minimum number of credits to calculate academic year fees. Therefore, when reporting based on per credit, tuition will be multiplied by 30 credits.
  8. Report additional compulsory fees for materials or equipment on pages 4 (undergraduate) and 5 (graduate).
  9. NEW degree programs must be specified in the Comments section at the bottom of page 2 (undergraduate) and page 3 (graduate).
  10. Undergraduate Law page 2, only professional designations for Law (LLB, JD, BCL), from a Faculty of Law should be reported in this grouping.
  11. Graduate Law page 3, only professional Law degrees from a Faculty of Law (post-LLB/JD), should be reported in this grouping.
  12. Tuition for legal studies degree programs (non-professional Law degrees) on page 2 and page 3, should be reported under "Social and Behavioural Sciences, and Legal Studies". See Appendix A.
  13. Only Medicine (MD, doctor of medicine) program should be reported under undergraduate Medicine, page 2 of the questionnaire. See appendix A.
  14. Personal, Protective and Transportation Services includes:
    1. 43.0103 Criminal justice / law enforcement administration
    2. 43.0104 Criminal justice / safety studies
    3. 43.0106 Forensic science and technology
    4. 43.0107 Criminal justice / police science

Part B: Additional Compulsory fees for full-time Canadian Students

How to Report Additional Compulsory Fees:

In part B of the questionnaire, report additional compulsory fees for full-time Canadian students in the first row of the table where these fees do not vary according to their field of study for all full-time undergraduate students (page 4) and graduate students (page 5).

Important note: Health Plan and Dental Plan fees that students can opt out of with proof of comparable coverage should not be included. However, this information should be noted in the comments section of the questionnaire.

Part C: Living Accommodation costs at residences/housing

Accommodation costs should be reported wherever possible for full-time students living in residence. If it is not possible to separate the room and the meal plan costs for single students only a total should be reported.

III. Definitions

Tuition Fees

Tuition that is charged to a full-time student with a full course load, regardless of the number of credits.

Additional Compulsory fees

Additional compulsory fees collected by the TLAC survey are those that all students must pay regardless of the field of study (TLAC grouping).

These fees cover services that vary from institution to institution, year to year, faculty to faculty, or school to school within the same institution.

Additional compulsory fees may include: general fees (admission, registration, examination, internship, etc.), technology fees, student services fees, student association fees, contributions to student activities, copyright fees, premiums for compulsory insurance plans, fees for athletics and recreational facilities/activities, and other fees such as transcript, degree, laboratory, uniform, u-pass, etc.

TLAC Additional Compulsory Fee Breakdown

Athletics fees

Mandatory fees that support intercollegiate athletics, they cover athletics facilities and campus recreational activities (intramurals, fitness and recreation courses, etc.)

Health Services fees

Mandatory fees support the on-campus clinic facilities providing services of doctors and nurses. Health and dental plan fees: if students can opt out of these plans with proof of comparable coverage, these fees should be excluded from the survey.

Student Association fee

Mandatory fees support the general operating expenses of the association.

Other fees

If compulsory fees are reported in "Other please specify" you must provide further details on the types of fees reported. For example, u-pass, transcript, laboratory, technology fee, etc.

IV. Suggestions

Statistics Canada would welcome any suggestions for changes in the survey which you may wish to propose.

4. Verify or provide the current main activity of the business or organization identified by the legal and operating name above.

Note: The described activity was assigned using the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).

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 classes; 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.

The following is the detailed description including any applicable examples or exclusions for the classification currently associated with this business or organization.

Major air carriers key financial and operating statistics monthly survey

1. Please provide the details of this business's scheduled services by sector of operation during this reporting period.

Sector of operation
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).

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 passengers Footnote 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.

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.

Please provide the details of this business's scheduled services by sector of operation during this reporting period.

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.
