Table of contents

Business or organization and contact information

This section verifies or requests basic identifying information of the business or organization such as legal name, operating name (if applicable), contact information of the designated contact person, current operational status, and main activity(ies).

1. Legal name and Operating name

Legal Name
The legal name is one recognized by law, thus it is the name liable for pursuit or for debts incurred by the business or organization. In the case of a corporation, it is the legal name as fixed by its charter or the statute by which the corporation was created.

Modifications to the legal name should only be done to correct a spelling error or typo.

To indicate a legal name of another legal entity you should instead indicate it in question 3 by selecting 'Not currently operational' and then choosing the applicable reason and providing the legal name of this other entity along with any other requested information.

Operating Name
The operating name is a name the business or organization is commonly known as if different from its legal name. The operating name is synonymous with trade name.

2. Designated contact person

Verify or provide the requested contact information of the designated business or organization contact person. The designated contact person is the person who should receive this questionnaire. The designated contact person may not always be the one who actually completes the questionnaire. If different than the designated contact person, the contact information of the person completing the questionnaire can be indicated later in the questionnaire.

3. Current operational status

Verify or provide the current operational status of the business or organization identified by the legal and operating name in question 1. If indicating the operational status of the business or organization is 'Not currently operational' then indicate an applicable reason and provide the requested information.

4. Main activity

This question verifies the business or organization's current main activity as classified by the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is an industry classification system developed by the statistical agencies of Canada, Mexico and the United States. Created against the background of the North American Free Trade Agreement, it is designed to provide common definitions of the industrial structure of the three countries and a common statistical framework to facilitate the analysis of the three economies. NAICS is based on supply-side or production-oriented principles, to ensure that industrial data, classified to NAICS, are suitable for the analysis of production-related issues such as industrial performance.

The target entity for which NAICS is designed are businesses and other organizations engaged in the production of goods and services. They include farms, incorporated and unincorporated businesses and government business enterprises. They also include government institutions and agencies engaged in the production of marketed and non-marketed services, as well as organizations such as professional associations and unions and charitable or non-profit organizations and the employees of households.

The associated NAICS should reflect those activities conducted by the business or organizational units targeted by this questionnaire only, as identified in the 'Answering this questionnaire' section and which can be identified by the specified legal and operating name. The main activity is the activity which most defines the targeted business or organization's main purpose or reason for existence. For a business or organization that is for-profit, it is normally the activity that generates the majority of the revenue for the entity.

The NAICS classification contains a limited number of activity classifications; the associated classification might be applicable for this business or organization even if it is not exactly how you would describe this business or organization's main activity.

Please note that any modifications to the main activity through your response to this question might not necessarily be reflected prior to the transmitting of subsequent questionnaires and as a result they may not contain this updated information.

If the current NAICS associated with this business or organizations is not correct, please provide a brief description of the main activity and provide any additional information as requested.

Reporting Guide - 2022 Annual Civil Aviation Survey - Level IV

Integrated Business Statistics Program (IBSP)

Reporting Guide

This guide is designed to assist you as you complete the 2022 Annual Civil Aviation Survey - Level IV. If you need more information, please call the Statistics Canada Help Line at the number below.

Help Line: 1-877-949-9492

Your answers are confidential.

Statistics Canada is prohibited by law from releasing any information it collects which could identify any person, business, or organization, unless consent has been given by the respondent or as permitted by the Statistics Act.

Statistics Canada will use information from this survey for statistical purposes.

Table of contents

Business or organization and contact information

This section verifies or requests basic identifying information of the business or organization such as legal name, operating name (if applicable), contact information of the designated contact person, current operational status, and main activity(ies).

1. Legal name and Operating name

Legal Name

The legal name is one recognized by law, thus it is the name liable for pursuit or for debts incurred by the business or organization. In the case of a corporation, it is the legal name as fixed by its charter or the statute by which the corporation was created.

Modifications to the legal name should only be done to correct a spelling error or typo.

To indicate a legal name of another legal entity you should instead indicate it in question 3 by selecting 'Not currently operational' and then choosing the applicable reason and providing the legal name of this other entity along with any other requested information.

Operating Name

The operating name is a name the business or organization is commonly known as if different from its legal name. The operating name is synonymous with trade name.

2. Designated contact person

Verify or provide the requested contact information of the designated business or organization contact person. The designated contact person is the person who should receive this questionnaire. The designated contact person may not always be the one who actually completes the questionnaire. If different than the designated contact person, the contact information of the person completing the questionnaire can be indicated later in the questionnaire.

3. Current operational status

Verify or provide the current operational status of the business or organization identified by the legal and operating name in question 1. If indicating the operational status of the business or organization is 'Not currently operational' then indicate an applicable reason and provide the requested information.

4. Main activity

This question verifies the business or organization's current main activity as classified by the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is an industry classification system developed by the statistical agencies of Canada, Mexico and the United States. Created against the background of the North American Free Trade Agreement, it is designed to provide common definitions of the industrial structure of the three countries and a common statistical framework to facilitate the analysis of the three economies. NAICS is based on supply-side or production-oriented principles, to ensure that industrial data, classified to NAICS, are suitable for the analysis of production-related issues such as industrial performance.

The target entity for which NAICS is designed are businesses and other organizations engaged in the production of goods and services. They include farms, incorporated and unincorporated businesses and government business enterprises. They also include government institutions and agencies engaged in the production of marketed and non-marketed services, as well as organizations such as professional associations and unions and charitable or non-profit organizations and the employees of households.

The associated NAICS should reflect those activities conducted by the business or organizational units targeted by this questionnaire only, as identified in the 'Answering this questionnaire' section and which can be identified by the specified legal and operating name. The main activity is the activity which most defines the targeted business or organization's main purpose or reason for existence. For a business or organization that is for-profit, it is normally the activity that generates the majority of the revenue for the entity.

The NAICS classification contains a limited number of activity classifications; the associated classification might be applicable for this business or organization even if it is not exactly how you would describe this business or organization's main activity.

Please note that any modifications to the main activity through your response to this question might not necessarily be reflected prior to the transmitting of subsequent questionnaires and as a result they may not contain this updated information.

If the current NAICS associated with this business or organizations is not correct, please provide a brief description of the main activity and provide any additional information as requested.

Statement of Revenues, Annual - Statement 21 (IV)

An Overview of the Farm Management Survey 2021 (32220003)

The Farm Management Survey (FMS) is a unique source of data covering agricultural management practices and their impact on the environment. This presentation will:

  • Highlight results from the 2021 cycle of the FMS published on December 14th, 2022;
  • Describe how these data are collected;
  • Provide instructions on how to access data from the FMS.

The Farm Management Survey is held every 5 years as a follow up to the Census of Agriculture. The target population includes 7 different types of farms in Canada: dairy, beef, pork, poultry, field crops (such as wheat, corn, and soybeans), forage crops (such as hay and silage) and vegetable, fruit, berry, and nut crops farms. For each of these types of farms, the FMS covers multiple subjects related to the environmental impact of agriculture, such as: type of feed given to livestock, cattle housing management, manure storage and application, wetland management, crop fertilizer application, land management practices (tillage, pesticide use, soil erosion prevention, etc.), innovation on farm, use of new technologies, and many others.

2026 Census of Population chatbot consultative engagement

Opened: April 2023

Consultative engagement objectives

Statistics Canada is always looking for innovative and creative ways to better serve Canadians. Building on the work done by other government departments and jurisdictions, Statistics Canada has developed a new chatbot and a live chat option for the 2026 Census.

The chatbot, an advanced computer program developed in-house at Statistics Canada, offers automated responses to frequently asked questions, while the live chat connects users with an agent for assistance when the chatbot cannot address their specific query. These features aim to improve and supplement the existing services provided to Canadians by creating a positive, secure online experience and assist respondents in their 2026 Census of Population questionnaire needs.

The Consultative Engagement Team will conduct usability tests to assess the quality and effectiveness of the chatbot and live chat options.

How to get involved

Individuals who wish to participate or obtain more information on the consultation initiative can contact us at consultativeengagement-mobilisationconsultative@statcan.gc.ca.

Statistics Canada is committed to respecting the privacy of consultation participants. All personal information created, held or collected by the agency is kept strictly confidential; it is protected by the Privacy Act. For more information on Statistics Canada's privacy policies, please consult the Privacy notice.

Results

Once available, summary results of this engagement initiative will be published online for public access.

1. Scheduled services - operating statistics

Include fixed wing and helicopter services.

Sector of operation

Refers to the regions where carriers provide transportation services. There are three breakdowns – domestic, transborder (Canada-US) and other international.

Domestic includes operations between points in Canada.

Transborder (Canada-US) includes operations between points in Canada and points in the United States (including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico).

Other international includes all other operations, (including between points outside of Canada).

Data reported must include both fixed wing and helicopter services, where:

Fixed wing

Means a power-driven, heavier-than-air aircraft, deriving its lift in flight chiefly from aerodynamic reactions on surfaces which remain fixed. An aircraft having wings fixed to the airplane fuselage and outspread in flight – that is non-rotating wings.

Helicopter

Means a rotary wing, heavier-than-air aircraft, supported in flight chiefly by the reactions of the air on one or more power-driven rotors on substantially vertical axes. A helicopter does not have conventional fixed wings, nor is it provided with a conventional propeller for forward thrust.

Scheduled services

Transportation of passengers or goods, or both, by an aircraft provided by an air carrier that operates the air service and that, directly or indirectly, sells some or all of its seats or part or all of its cargo space to the public on a price per seat, price per unit of mass or price per volume of cargo basis.

Enplaned passengers

Refers to revenue passengersFootnote 1 who board aircraft and surrender one or more flight coupons or other documents good for transportation over the itinerary specified in these coupons or documents.

Passenger-kilometres

Represents the carriage of one revenue passenger on each flight stage multiplied by the number of kilometres flown on that stage. Passenger-kilometres are obtained by totalling the number of kilometres flown by all passengers.

Let's take an example with two flight stages, where:

Flight stage A to B
Number of passengers = 5
Distance between points (km) = 161
Passenger-kilometres = 805

Flight stage B to C
Number of passengers = 4
Distance between points (km) = 322
Passenger-kilometres = 1,288

The total number of passenger-kilometres for the flights covering A to B and B to C is 2,093.

Conversion factor

To convert nautical miles (6 080 feet) into kilometres (km), multiply by 1.852.

To convert statute miles (5 280 feet) into kilometres (km), multiply by 1.609344.

Available seat-kilometres

Represents the aircraft kilometres flown on each flight stage multiplied by the number of seats available for use on that stage. This represents the total passenger carrying capacity offered. Seats not actually available for the carriage of passengers should be excluded.

Hours flown

Represents the block hours, in other words, the number of hours which elapsed between the time the aircraft started to move to commence a flight and the time the aircraft came to its final stop after the conclusion of a flight. Report the total number of block hours flown to the nearest hour.

Enplaned goods

Refers to all types of non-passenger traffic. It includes priority freight, freight, mail and excess baggage for which revenue is obtained. Enplaned goods should be reported to the nearest kilogram.

Conversion factor

To convert pounds (lbs.) into kilograms (kg), multiply by 0.453592.

Goods tonne-kilometres

Represents the carriage of one tonne of goods on each flight stage multiplied by the number of kilometres flown on that stage. Goods tonne-kilometres are obtained by totalling the number of kilometres flown with all tonnes of goods.

Let's take an example with two flight stages, where:

Flight stage A to B
Tonnes of goods = 5
Distance between points (km) = 161
Goods tonne-kilometres = 805

Flight stage B to C
Tonnes of goods = 4
Distance between points (km) = 322
Goods tonne-kilometres = 1,288

The total number of goods tonne-kilometres for the flights covering A to B and B to C is 2,093.

Conversion factor

To convert nautical miles (6 080 feet) into kilometres (km), multiply by 1.852.

To convert statute miles (5 280 feet) into kilometres (km), multiply by 1.609344.

Available tonne-kilometres

Represents the aircraft kilometres flown on each flight stage multiplied by the usable weight capacity of the aircraft. This represents the load carrying capacity offered for passengers and/or goods.

2. Scheduled services - revenue

Include fixed wing and helicopter services.

Passenger revenue

Refers to the revenue earned from the transportation of passengers on scheduled services. Include revenue from all surcharges (baggage, fuel, seat selection, and so on) that are retained by the air carrier. Exclude amounts such as taxes, navigation fees, security fees, and so on that are collected but passed on to other entities. Total passenger revenue should equal the passenger revenue from scheduled services from the first screen.

Goods revenue

Refers to the revenue earned from the transportation of goods on scheduled services. Exclude taxes such as the Goods and Services Tax (GST), Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) or Provincial Sales Tax (PST). Total goods revenue should equal the goods revenue from scheduled services from the first screen.

Charter Services, Revenue Operating Statistics, Quarterly - Statement 12 (I, II)

1. Charter services - operating statistics

1. Introductions and opening remarks

Anil Arora, Chief Statistician of Canada
Chantal Bernier, Co-chair, Global Privacy and Cybersecurity Group, Dentons Canada LLP (Chair)

Mr. Arora opened the meeting by welcoming members to the sixth meeting of the Advisory Council on Ethics and Modernization of Microdata Access (ACEMMA). He thanked members and noted that their skills and expertise are of the utmost importance to Statistics Canada (StatCan), and essential as the agency continues to modernize in an ethical and responsible manner, while delivering better access to data. Mr. Arora thanked Chantal Bernier for taking on the role of Chair of the Council and provided roundtable introduction of StatCan attendees and presenters. Ms. Bernier provided roundtable introductions of Council members and of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada. Ms. Bernier concluded opening remarks in stating that the meeting will further explore a need for guided balance between individual right to privacy and public interest in result of data. Furthermore, the relationship between statistics and privacy is critical when data is explored within the framework of the four Gs: Gather, Guard, Grow and Give.

2. Updates from the Privacy Commissioner of Canada

Philippe Dufresne, Privacy Commissioner of Canada

Mr. Dufresne noted that there is a need to protect privacy and to achieve public interest. Canadians want the ability to fully participate in society and the digital world. As a result, Canadians and their institutions need to be able to seize the benefits of technology and innovation in the private and public sectors. To achieve this, modernized laws are required both with respect to private and public sector. Of equal importance is the continued collaboration and work between the two agencies. Three key themes were discussed:

  1. Privacy as a fundamental right
  2. Privacy in support of the public interest and Canada's innovation and competitiveness
  3. Privacy as an accelerator of Canadians' trust in their institutions

Mr. Dufresne noted that the collection of information must be limited to strictly what is necessary and proportional to achieve the objectives of an organization. It is equally important to train individuals handling the information on the importance of protecting privacy and having necessary mechanisms put in place to ensure policies and practices are respected on an ongoing basis. When individuals trust that their rights will be protected, they feel confident in participating freely in the digital economy and collaborating with their government and sharing information with the government.

Council members were pleased with the presentation provided by the Privacy Commissioner. Members emphasized the importance of working towards a culture of privacy in which Canadians feel that their privacy is protected while educating them to understand how and why their information is being sought and used. Companies must consider privacy at the front end to ensure they are being transparent regarding the purpose of information being collected and obtaining meaningful consent. Members agreed that the way forward is to continue to reform privacy laws in a manner that recognizes and protect privacy as a fundamental right, while at the same time supporting the public interest and innovation. It is of utmost importance to carry out both concepts in an integrated and balanced manner.

3. Data Ethics – General updates, refinement, and implementation of data ethics principles in the context of the necessity and proportionality framework

Martin Beaulieu, Chief, International Cooperation and Methodology Innovation Centre, Statistics Canada

Mr. Beaulieu shared progress and updates on activities on behalf of the Data Ethics Secretariat since their last presentation at the April 2022 meeting. A brief overview and summary were provided on the following concepts: the Necessity and Proportionality (N&P) Framework, the role of the Data Ethics Secretariat within StatCan, and the foundations of ethical considerations and the Six Guiding Principles. The Secretariat's next steps include integrating and refining existing processes, continuing communication efforts with partners, refining documentation on the guiding principles and the Trust Centre, developing training materials, and conducting research on specific topics.

Council members were pleased with the presentation. Members were impressed with Data Ethics Secretariat's structure and due diligence. The framework and guiding principles put into place allows for Canadians to trust StatCan as an agency regarding its ethical guidelines and principles. Members advised that it may be of interest for the Secretariat to share the questionnaire used for the guiding principles externally once the new version is finalized. Regarding areas for improvement, members expressed the following: (1) To be more specific of what the data will be collected and used for, and (2) With the recognition that the framework and guidelines will continue to be refined, the agency should publicize them more and the incredible work that Canada does regarding protection of data.

4. Disaggregated Data Action Plan

Tony Labillois, Director General, Justice, Diversity and Population Statistics Branch, Statistics Canada
Ashley Edwards, Acting Chief, Diversity and Sociocultural Statistics Division, Statistics Canada

Mr. Labillois and Ms. Edwards shared progress and updates on activities regarding the Disaggregated Data Action Plan (DDAP) on behalf of the DDAP Secretariat. A brief overview and summary were provided on the following concepts: DDAP's governance structure, framework, and accomplishments throughout the past year. The Secretariat's next steps include to continue engagement and communication to build trust and social license by carrying various activities such as engaging with Canadians on how to collect, continue consultations with stakeholders and key players, analyze and disseminate data, maintain an active presence on social media, develop and promote statistical standards at StatCan, develop additional visual tools to provide access to data, and expand disaggregated data assets. Council members were asked to reflect on the following questions and considerations:

  • DDAP data is data for good. What can we do to reinforce that message?
  • DDAP is anchored to Statistics Canada frameworks such as Necessity and Proportionality. Are there other examples of publicly trusted guidelines that we should be considering?
  • How can DDAP further position Statistics Canada among the most trusted of public institutions? Who are the influencers and how do we better reach them? What are important key messages?
  • What groups or communities can we target our trust message to that will result in the greatest return?

Council members were pleased with the presentation from DDAP and addressed several of the questions posed. Members emphasized the importance to continue consultations with stakeholders and key players in the decision-making process and program design, alongside informing. Providing context is key when reinforcing the concept that DDAP data is data for good, and to remain diligent of the messaging surrounding the results published from the program. Regarding key influencers, members noted the United Nations (UN) and other international bodies. Regarding groups and communities to target, members noted that sociologists may be a target of interest as a source of information and consultation, as they analyze society and alert on movements congregating around certain demographics.

5. Pilot project granting vDL access to researcher located in the United States (US)

Geneviève Jourdain, Director, Data Access Division, Statistics Canada

Ms. Jourdain shared an update on the pilot project granting vDL access to a researcher located in the US. The research project is in partnership with the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC). It was noted that access to the vDL has been granted to the researcher and that additional steps are to follow. Council members had no follow up questions and requested an update on the pilot project at the next Advisory Council meeting.

6. Roundtable and closing remarks

Anil Arora, Chief Statistician of Canada

Mr. Arora and Ms. Bernier thanked members and invited them to share their final thoughts.

Advisory Council action items

Action Items:

  • Next meeting: October 2023 (tentatively).
  • Provide update on pilot project granting vDL access to researcher located in the US at next meeting.

Considerations:

  • Increase education for Canadians to better understand how and why their information is being sought and used and promote awareness surrounding how privacy works.
  • Data Ethics Secretariat to share questionnaire used for the Guiding Principles externally once the new version is finalized.
  • Regarding areas for improvement for the Data Ethics Secretariat: (1) Be more specific of what the data will be collected and used for, and (2) With the recognition that the framework and guidelines will continue to be refined, the agency should publicize them more and the incredible work that Canada does regarding protection of data.

Definitions

What are Capital Expenditures?

Capital Expenditures are the gross expenditures on fixed assets for use in the operations of your organization or for lease or rent to others. Gross expenditures are expenditures before deducting proceeds from disposals, and credits (capital grants, donations, government assistance and investment tax credits).

Fixed assets are also known as capital assets or property, plant and equipment. They are items with a useful life of more than one year and are not purchased for resale but rather for use in the entity's production of goods and services.

Examples are buildings, vehicles, leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures, machinery, and computer software.

Include:

  • Modifications, acquisitions and major renovations
  • Capital costs such as feasibility studies, architectural, legal, installation and engineering fees
  • Subsidies and grants received and used in additions to fixed assets and construction-in-progress during the period
  • Capitalized interest charges on loans with which capital projects are financed
  • Work done by own labour force
  • Additions to capital work in progress (construction-in-progress) accounts.

Exclude:

  • Transfers from capital work in progress (construction-in-progress) to fixed assets accounts
  • Assets associated with the acquisition of companies
  • Property developed for sale and machinery, or equipment acquired for sale (inventory).

How to Treat Leases

Include:

  • assets acquired as a lessee through either a capital or financial lease;
  • assets acquired for lease to others as an operating lease.

Exclude:

  • operating leases acquired as a lessee and capitalized to right-of-use assets in accordance with IFRS 16 (International Financial Reporting Standards)
  • assets acquired for lease to others, either as a capital or financial lease.

Non-Capital Repair and Maintenance Expenditures

This question represents the repair and maintenance of assets in contrast to the acquisition of assets or the renovation of assets.

Non-capitalized repair and maintenance expenditures are that portion of current or operating expenditures charged against revenue in the year incurred and made for the purpose of keeping the stock of fixed assets in good working condition during the life originally intended.

Repair and maintenance allow such fixed assets to operate at output producing capacity during the asset life without undue amounts of down time (preventive function). A second purpose is the returning of any portion of the stock of fixed assets into a state of good working condition after any malfunctioning or reduced efficiency for whatever reason (curative function) short of replacement of such fixed assets or adding significantly to their life or productive efficiency.

Maintenance expenditures on buildings and other structures may include the routine care of assets such as janitorial services, snow removal and/or salting and sanding by the firm's own employees or persons outside the firm's employ.

Maintenance expenditures on machinery and equipment may include oil change and lubrication of vehicles and machinery.

Include:

  • Gross non-capital repair and maintenance expenditures on non-residential buildings, other structures and on machinery and equipment;
  • Value of repair work done by your own employees as well as payments to persons outside your employ;
  • Building maintenance such as janitorial services, snow removal and sanding;
  • Equipment maintenance such as oil changes and lubrication of vehicles and other machinery.

Industry characteristics

New Assets: Report capital expenditures for acquisitions of new assets including the portion of work in progress for the current year. Include imports of used assets since they represent newly acquired assets for the Canadian economy.

Purchase of Used Canadian Assets: The object of our survey is to measure the acquisitions of new fixed assets separately from used fixed assets in the Canadian economy as a whole. This is because the acquisition of used assets does not increase the total inventory of fixed assets, it only transfers them within the Canadian economy.

Renovation, Retrofit, Refurbishing, Overhauling and Restoration: Report capital expenditures for existing assets being upgraded, renovated, retrofitted, refurbished, overhauled or restored.

Expected Useful Life of Assets: Report the expected life of the asset in years. If you have purchased similar assets with varying expected useful lives, please combine the data and provide a weighted average for the number of years, or the expected useful life of the asset with the largest value.

Land: Capital expenditures for land should include all costs associated with the purchase of the land that are not amortized or depreciated. Improvements of land should be reported in Non-Residential Construction.

Residential Construction: Capital expenditures incurred during the reporting period for residential structures (on a contracted basis and/or by your own employees).

  • Include the housing portion of multi-purpose projects and of townsites.
  • Exclude buildings that have accommodation units without self contained or exclusive use of bathroom and kitchen facilities (e.g., some student and senior citizens residences) and associated expenditures on services.

Non-Residential Construction: Capital expenditures incurred during the reporting period for non-residential building and engineering construction (on a contracted basis and/or by your own employees) whether for your own use or rent to others. Construction structures should be classified to an asset according to its principal use unless it is a multi-purpose structure where we would like you to separate the components. The cost of any machinery and equipment which is an integral or built-in feature of the structure (i.e. elevators, heating equipment, sprinkler systems, environmental controls, intercom systems, etc.) should be reported as part of that structure as well as landscaping, associated parking lots, etc.

Include:

  • Manufacturing plants, warehouses, office buildings, shopping centres, etc.;
  • Roads, bridges, sewers, electric power lines, underground cables, etc.;
  • The cost of demolition of buildings, land servicing and site preparation;
  • Leasehold and land improvements.
  • Additions to work in progress;
  • Townsite facilities such as streets, sewers, stores and schools;
  • Buildings that have accommodation units without self contained or exclusive use of bathroom and kitchen facilities (e.g., some student and senior citizen residences) and associated expenditures on services;
  • All preconstruction planning and design costs such as engineer and consulting fees and any materials supplied to construction contractors for installation, etc.

Machinery and Equipment

Capital expenditures incurred during the reporting period for machinery and equipment, whether for your own use or for lease or rent to others. Machinery and equipment are generally housed in structures and can be removed or replaced without significantly altering the structure.

Include:

  • Automobiles, trucks, professional and scientific equipment, office and store furniture and appliances;
  • Computers (hardware only), broadcasting, telecommunications and other information and communication technologies equipment;
  • Motors, generators, transformers;
  • Any capitalized tooling expenses;
  • Acquisitions to work in progress;
  • Progress payments paid out before delivery in the year in which such payments are made;
  • Any balance owing or holdbacks should be reported in the year the cost is incurred.

Oil and Gas and Mineral Exploration: These expenditures include mineral rights fees and retention costs, geological, geophysical and seismic expenses, exploration drilling, and other costs incurred during the reporting period in order to determine whether mineral, oil or gas reserves exist and can be exploited commercially. Report gross expenditures, before deducting any incentive grants. Exclude the cost of land and business acquisitions.

Work in Progress: Work in progress represents accumulated costs since the start of capital projects which are intended to be capitalized upon completion.

Cost component of expenditures – internal costs

Internal construction or development costs: (such as material and labour) that are capitalized as part of the asset costs (such as own employee installation or erection of fixed assets, systems and software development staff).

Include all materials and supplies provided free to contractors and all architects, engineering and consultants fees and similar services.

Salaries and Wages: Show the total value of salaries and wages paid to your employees. Salaries and wages are gross earnings before deductions such as income tax and include incentive bonuses and vacation pay but exclude fringe benefits.

Materials and Supplies: Report total cost of materials and supplies used by your own employees and those provided free to contractors relating to the expenditures reported.

Other Charges: Examples of other charges are insurance, power, telephone and also architectural, legal, and engineering fees considered to be applicable to the expenditures reported.

Source of Funding Breakdown

Sources of funding of capital expenditures include grants, subsidies, donations, credit and venture capital from external sources, as well as internal funding.

Environmental protection and resource management expenditures

These questions cover the capital and repair expenditures made by this organization in order to prevent, reduce or eliminate pollution and other forms of degradation of the environment while performing your production activity, i.e., within your organization. Expenditures made to restore the environment from a degraded state are included. It can also be expenditures made for resource management activities which result in the more efficient use of natural resources, thus safeguarding against their depletion or the use of goods that have been adapted to be significantly less energy or resource intensive than the industry standard. This includes expenditures that this specific operation incurred for pollution prevention and abatement and control. Exclude expenditures made to improve employee health, workplace safety, and site beautification. Please report all environmental protection or resource management expenditures whether or not they are in response to current or anticipated Canadian or international regulations, conventions or voluntary agreements.

Specific activities are: Solid waste management; Wastewater management; Air pollution management; Protection and remediation of soil, groundwater and surface water; Protection of biodiversity and habitat; Noise and vibration abatement; Protection against radiation; Heat or energy savings and management; Fuel efficient vehicles and transportation goods or technologies; Production of energy from renewable sources; Renewable energy; Production of nuclear energy; and any other environmental protection or resource management activities.
