Confidentiality statement

This survey is conducted under the authority of the Statistics Act, Revised Statutes of Canada 1985, Chapter S19. Completion of this questionnaire is a legal requirement under this Act. Statistics Canada is prohibited by law from publishing or releasing any statistics which would divulge information obtained from this survey relating to any identifiable business without the previous written consent of that business. The data on this questionnaire will be treated in confidence, used for statistical purposes and published in aggregate form only. The confidentiality provisions of the Statistics Act are not affected by the Access to Information Act or any other legislation. Please note that Statistics Canada does not share any individual responses with the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency.

Data sharing agreements

To reduce respondent burden, Statistics Canada has entered into data-sharing agreements with provincial and territorial statistical agencies and other government organizations, which must keep the data confidential and use them only for statistical purposes.  Statistics Canada will only share data from this survey with those organizations that have demonstrated a requirement to use the data.

Section 11 of the Statistics Act provides for the sharing of information with provincial and territorial statistical agencies that meet certain conditions.  These agencies must have the legislative authority to collect the same information, on a mandatory basis, and the legislation must provide substantially the same provisions for confidentiality and penalties for disclosure of confidential information as the Statistics Act.  Because these agencies have the legal authority to compel businesses to provide the same information, consent is not requested and businesses may not object to the sharing of the data.

For this survey, there are Section 11 agreements with the provincial and territorial statistical agencies of Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia and the Yukon.

The shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province or territory.

Section 12 of the Statistics Act provides for the sharing of information with federal, provincial or territorial government organizations.  Under this section, you may refuse to share your information with any of these organizations by writing a letter of objection to the Chief Statistician, specifying the organizations with which you do not want to share your data and returning it in a separate envelope addressed to: Chief, Information technologies section, Investment, Science and Technology Division, Statistics Canada, Main Building, 150 Tunney's Pasture Driveway, Ottawa, Canada, K1A 0T6.

For this survey, there are section 12 agreements with the statistical agencies of Prince Edward Island, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut as well as with the Department of Canadian Heritage, the “Ministère de la Culture, des Communications et de la Condition feminine du Québec” and the Ontario Ministry of Economic Development and Trade.

For these agreements, the shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province or territory.

Note: As well there is a Section 12 agreement with the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC). The CRTC requires this information under the authority of the Broadcasting Act and the regulations and conditions of licence thereunder. Because of this Act, you do not have the right to refuse to share your information with the CRTC. It will retain a copy of the questionnaire thus satisfying the requirements of the Television Broadcasting Regulations 1987 and Radio Regulations 1986 or conditions of licence for all broadcasters in Canada to provide this type of information to the commission on or before November 30 of each year for the year ending on the previous August 31.

Change of ownership

When a change of ownership has been approved by the CRTC, within 90 days thereof, the former licensee will file with Statistics Canada a copy of an annual return covering the period of operations from September 1 to the day of transfer.  The new licensee will file an annual return from the day of transfer to August 31. In some cases, the new licensee elects to file an annual return for the full broadcast year. In either case, the licensee should indicate on the return, which period they are filing.

Background

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) measures the rate at which the prices of a fixed basket of representative consumer goods and services change over time. In order to accurately reflect changes in the market and the behavior of consumers, Statistics Canada periodically reviews and updates the concepts and methods applied to the various components of the CPI program.

The methodology of the Prescribed Medicines Index (PMI), part of the Canadian CPI, has been updated with the September CPI release on October 19, 2012. Concepts remain the same. Prescribed medicines account for 0.6% of the CPI 2009 basket and belong to a major component of the CPI, Health and Personal Care Products.

The market structure for prescribed medicines has changed since the last major PMI update: the number of prescriptions and sales of many generic drugs have increased while those of brand products have declined in relative terms, new drugs have been introduced to the market and the importance of the various therapeutic classes has changed over time.

The Prescribed Medicines Index (PMI) Review

The following changes have been made to the index:

1. The classification of the PMI has been updated to represent the main therapeutic classes for prescribed drugs sold in Canada. The new classification has 9 therapeutic classes: 5 old therapeutic classes have been removed and 4 new therapeutic classes have been introduced.
2. New representative products (RPs) have been selected for the updated therapeutic classes. For the first time, generic versions of drug brands are included for every therapeutic class. The old RP sample included 16 products whereas the new sample now includes 25 products.
3. To reduce response burden and control costs, a method of even and odd month price collection has been introduced. Two different samples of pharmacies are visited for odd and even month price collections; however, each therapeutic class is covered each month, involving 13 of the 25 representative products (RPs) in the odd months and 12 RPs in even months. By collecting more RPs less frequently, and from the same outlets only every second month, the sampling coverage is increased while the burden on respondents is controlled. In 2020, a further reduction in collection frequency brought the frequency down to four collections and each pharmacy was only visited twice.
4. The outlet sample has been completely renewed to be made more representative and control response burden. The new outlet sample is selected from a target population which consists of all statistical locations on Statistics Canada's Business Register (BR). Those locations are classified by industries, using the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS 2007), with the revenues from the sales of the prescribed drugs commodity group derived from Statistics Canada's Quarterly Retail Commodity Survey (QRCS). The NAICS codes included in the target population are 446110 (Pharmacies and drug stores), 445110 (Supermarkets and other grocery (except convenience) stores), 452110 (Department stores) and 452910 (Warehouse clubs).

• The new sample consists of 222 pharmacy outlets compared to the previous sample which covered 100 outlets. The outlet selection was rebalanced based on population and sales volume criteria (to make it more representative at the national and provincial levels) as well as by types of outlets (whether chains or independent retailers).

The updated PMI methodology will contribute to making the CPI a better reflection of changing consumption patterns and product characteristics. In future, therapeutic classes and the samples of products and outlets will be updated more frequently. This regular update process will more effectively capture product substitutions that normally occur when consumers move away from relatively more expensive patented drugs to their relatively cheaper generic equivalents. As well, new products or new varieties of existing products, whether patented or generic, will be introduced into the classification and price sample more quickly than in the past.
