Labour productivity, hourly compensation and unit labour cost, second quarter 2006 
Labour productivity in the Canadian business sector fell by 0.4% between April and June, the first time in two years that it has slipped into negative territory. However, labour costs per unit of output, a key measure of inflationary pressure on wages, continued to rise at a slow pace in the second quarter (+0.3%).

Control and sale of alcoholic beverages, fiscal year ending March 31, 2005 (correction)
Sales of alcoholic beverages at Canada's beer and liquor stores and agencies increased at their slowest pace in eight years during the fiscal year ending March 31, 2005. For the first time, sales of wine in dollar terms surpassed sales of spirits.
