MAJOR RELEASES

Retail trade, October 2003
Retail sales advanced marginally in October, as consumer spending remained weak in several sectors. Sales by retailers edged up 0.2% to $26.4 billion in October, after falling 1.0% in September.

Survey of Suppliers of Business Financing, 2002
Canadian businesses reduced slightly their total debt owed in 2002, as a decline in the debt load of large borrowers offset increased debt among smaller borrowers. Suppliers of financing reported their business clients owed them $358.5 billion as of December 31, 2002, down 0.4% from the previous year.

Canada's demographic situation: Fertility of immigrant women
Fertility rates among foreign-born women start to decline relatively soon after they arrive in Canada, and eventually reach those of women who were born in Canada, according to a new study. The tendency for fertility rates to converge was especially notable among women who immigrated before the age of 15.
