Major releases

Canadian international merchandise trade, October 2004 
Canada's merchandise trade surplus with the world fell for the second consecutive month in October to its lowest level in a year, mostly because of declining exports. The surplus hit $4.4 billion in October, down $3.0 billion from the most recent high in June, which was the biggest surplus in three and a half years.

Monthly Survey of Manufacturing, October 2004
Following eight months of sustained growth in 2004, manufacturing activity has taken a downturn. In October, manufacturers reported fewer shipments for the second month in a row. Finished product inventories also continued to accumulate and fewer new orders were received.
