Note(s):
Data used for culture goods trade tabulations are revised by the International Trade Division of Statistics Canada, on a monthly, quarterly, and annual basis. Due to these ongoing quality improvements, data in this table may differ from data found in previous published versions. Due to changes in the Harmonized System of Classification in 2007, adjustments were made to the video and sound recording data for 2007 and 2008 to reflect the product break down of the Canadian Framework for Culture Statistics.
*China - for consistency with pre-1998 data, includes the trade boundary of Mongolia. Trade data for the special administrative areas of Hong Kong and Macao (formerly Macau) are also included.
