  1. Lumber
    Coniferous wood sawn or chipped lengthwise, sliced or peeled, whether or not planed, sanded or end-jointed/finger-jointed, of a thickness exceeding 6 mm
    Answer yes or no
  2. Flooring
    Coniferous wood flooring (including strips and friezes for parquet flooring, not assembled) continuously shaped (tongued, grooved, rabbeted, chamfered, V-jointed, beaded, molded, rounded or the like) along any of its edges, ends or faces, whether or not planed, sanded or end-jointed/finger-jointed
    Answer yes or no
  3. Siding
    Coniferous wood siding (including strips and friezes for parquet flooring, not assembled) continuously shaped (tongued, grooved, rabbeted, chamfered, V-jointed, beaded, molded, rounded or the like) along any of its edges, ends or faces, whether or not planed, sanded or end-jointed/finger-jointed
    Answer yes or no
  4. Other coniferous wood
    Other coniferous wood (including strips and friezes for parquet flooring, not assembled) continuously shaped (tongued, grooved, rabbeted, chamfered, V-jointed, beaded, molded, rounded or the like) along any of its edges, ends or faces (other than wood moldings and wood dowel rods) whether or not planed, sanded or end-jointed/finger-jointed
    Answer yes or no
  5. Coniferous drilled and notched lumber and angle cut lumber
    Answer yes or no
  6. None of the above
    Answer yes or no

If you answered "Yes" for at least one product, please go to step 2

If you did not select "Yes" for any products from step 1 or answered "None of the above", please call this number 1-800-858-7921

Step 2

From the following list, please indicate the inputs used to manufacture the products you selected in step 1:

  1. Logs and bolts
  2. Lumber
  3. Both

If you selected only "Logs and bolts", section 1 (tables 1A to 1C) should be completed, then go to step 3

If you selected only "Lumber", section 4 (tables 4A to 4C) should be completed, then go to step 3

If you selected both inputs, section 1 (tables 1A to 1C) AND section 4 (tables 4A to 4C) should be completed, then go to step 3

Step 3

Did your business manufacture any other products using softwood logs and bolts as raw material inputs?

  1. Yes
  2. No

If yes, section 2 (tables 2A to 2C) should be completed, then continue to step 4

If no, go to step 4

Step 4

Did your business sell any softwood logs and bolts that were purchased and resold in the same condition (i.e. without any further processing or alteration in your business unit)?

  1. Yes
  2. No

If yes, section 3 (table 3) should be completed, then continue to step 5

If no, go to step 5

Step 5

From the following list, please indicate which coniferous species your company worked with in its manufacturing processes:

  1. Spruce, pine and fir
    1. Yes
    2. No
  2. Hemlock-fir
    1. Yes
    2. No
  3. Douglas Fir and Western larch
    1. Yes
    2. No
  4. Western red cedar
    1. Yes
    2. No
  5. Other softwood

General Information

Confidentiality

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.

Data-sharing agreements

To reduce respondent burden, Statistics Canada has entered into data-sharing agreements with provincial and territorial statistical agencies and other government organizations, which have agreed to keep the data confidential and use them only for statistical purposes. Statistics Canada will only share data from this survey with those organizations that have demonstrated a requirement to use the data.

Section 11 of the Statistics Act provides for the sharing of information with provincial and territorial statistical agencies that meet certain conditions. These agencies must have the legislative authority to collect the same information, on a mandatory basis, and the legislation must provide substantially the same provisions for confidentiality and penalties for disclosure of confidential information as the Statistics Act. Because these agencies have the legal authority to compel businesses to provide the same information, consent is not requested and businesses may not object to the sharing of the data.

For this survey, there are Section 11 agreements with the provincial and territorial statistical agencies of Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia and the Yukon. The shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province or territory.

Section 12 of the Statistics Act provides for the sharing of information with federal, provincial or territorial government organizations. Under Section 12, you may refuse to share your information with any of these organizations by writing a letter of objection to the Chief Statistician and returning it with the completed questionnaire. Please specify the organizations with which you do not want to share your data. For agreements with provincial and territorial government organizations, the shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province or territory.

For all manufacturing industries — there are Section 12 agreements with the statistical agencies of Prince Edward Island, Northwest Territories and Nunavut, as well as with the Quebec Forest Industry Council, the Ministère de l'Énergie et des Ressources naturelles du Québec, the Ministère des Forêts, de la Faune et des Parcs du Québec, the Ontario Ministry of Northern Development and Mines, the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, the Manitoba Department of Sustainable Development, the Saskatchewan Ministry of the Economy, the Alberta Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, the British Columbia Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, Environment Canada, Natural Resources Canada and the National Energy Board.

Authorized disclosure

Section 17 of the federal Statistics Act allows for the disclosure of a list of individual establishments, firms or businesses showing information including the establishments' names and locations (province, territory and municipality) and North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) codes. The disclosure of these lists may be authorized in order to aid analysts in the interpretation of the data from the Annual Survey of Manufacturing (Logging industries).

Record linkages

To enhance the data from this survey and to minimize the reporting burden, Statistics Canada may combine it with information from other surveys or from administrative sources.
