Spending patterns in Canada

1999

Spending patterns in Canada presents analysis and key tables from the annual Survey of Household Spending (which replaces the Survey of Family Expenditures and the Household Facilities and Equipment Survey). Find out, for example, how Canadian households spend their money - what appliances, communications or home entertainment equipment they have, for example. Discover more about the characteristics of Canadian homes; how many rooms they have, how they are heated, and whether they are in good repair.

The survey collects information about expenditures by households and families in Canada on a wide variety of goods and services, from food and shelter to pet expenses and movie admissions. It also collects data about dwelling characteristics, household appliances, home entertainment and communications equipment and vehicles.

Spending patterns in Canada, 1999 (62-202-XPE, $45) is now available. The electronic version, (62-202-XIE, $34) will be available soon. Data from the 1999 Survey of Household Spending were originally released in The Daily on December 12, 2000.
