Focus on culture
Summer 2001, Vol. 13, no. 2
Focus on culture, Statistics Canada's quarterly publication about culture statistics, presents analysis of current cultural issues and trends. This latest issue features the article, "Radio listening maintains its audience, Fall 2000", an analysis of trends in radio listening with an emphasis on the most recent data. Interestingly, despite the extraordinary variety of information and entertainment options now available, we still listen to about the same number of hours of radio as we did in 1986, when comparable data first became available.
The issue also includes an update (the first six months of 2001) on trade in cultural commodities. It reveals a rising trade deficit for Canada, despite strong growth in exports. Finally, this issue takes a look at the latest data from the Household Internet Use Survey.
The latest edition (Vol 13, no. 2) of Focus on culture (87-004-XIE, $7/$20 or 87-004-XPB, $9/$27) is now available. A free preview article from this publication, "Radio listening maintains its audience, Fall 2000" is also available free on Statistics Canada's website ().
