This table shows consumer price differentials among 11 cities in all 10 provinces for a selection of commodities and services in the reference period. The table includes the shelter component, which now makes it possible to provide an all-items index.
This table is now available in Excel format at a cost of $40. It will be published in the November 2000 issue of the Consumer Price Index (62-001-XPB). Starting in February 2001, it will be also be available on Statistics Canada's Web site (www.statcan.ca) in HTML and PDF formats.
