Canada's balance of international payments, fourth quarter 2005
Canada's current account surplus with the rest of the world increased $5.5 billion in the fourth quarter, reaching a new high of $13.3 billion, on a seasonally adjusted basis. In the capital and financial account (not seasonally adjusted), growth in Canada's international assets, which came from both portfolio and direct investments, outpaced increases in Canadian international liabilities.

Farm cash receipts, 2005
Market cash receipts for Canadian farmers edged up in 2005. A decline in crop revenues was more than offset by a big gain in receipts in the livestock industry, recovering from the BSE situation. Farmers received $32.0 billion in gross revenue from markets, up 1.1% from 2004.
