Purpose of the Survey

To obtain information on the supply of and demand for energy in Canada. This information serves as an important indicator of Canadian economic performance, is used by all levels of government in establishing informed policies in the energy area and, in the case of public utilities, is used by governmental agencies to fulfil their regulatory responsibilities. The private sector likewise uses this information in the corporate decision-making process.

Confidentiality

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. The confidentiality provisions of the Statistics Act are not affected by either the Access to information Act or any other legislation. Therefore, for example, the Canada Revenue Agency cannot access identifiable survey records from Statistics Canada.

Information from this survey will be used for statistical purposes only and will be published in aggregate form only.

Your information may also be used by Statistics Canada for other statistical and research purposes.

Data-Sharing Agreement

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, Québec, 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 the federal, provincial or territorial government organizations. Under Section 12, you may refuse to share your information with any of these organizations by writing a letter of objection to the Chief Statistician and returning it with the completed questionnaire. Please specify the organizations with which you do not want to share your data.

For this survey, there are Section 12 agreements with the statistical agencies of Prince Edward Island, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut and with the Ontario Ministry of Energy, Manitoba Innovation, Energy and Mines, Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources, Alberta Energy Department, the Alberta Energy Resources Conservation Board, British Columbia Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources, National Energy Board, Natural Resources Canada and Environment Canada.

For agreements with provincial and territorial government organizations, the shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province or territory.

Note that there is no right of refusal with respect to sharing the data with the Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources and Alberta Energy Resources Conservation Board. In addition to being collected under the Statistics Act, the information is collected pursuant to The Oil and Gas Conservation Act and Regulations, 1985 (Saskatchewan) and The Mineral Resources Act (Saskatchewan) on behalf of Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources, and section 65 of the Alberta Coal Conservation Regulation and sections 12.050 to 12.053 of the Alberta Gas and Oil Conservation Regulation, on behalf of the Alberta Energy Resources Conservation Board.

Table of contents

Purpose of the Survey

To obtain information on the supply of and demand for energy in Canada. This information serves as an important indicator of Canadian economic performance, is used by all levels of government in establishing informed policies in the energy area and, in the case of public utilities, is used by governmental agencies to fulfil their regulatory responsibilities. The private sector likewise uses this information in the corporate decision-making process.

Your information may also be used by Statistics Canada for other statistical and research purposes.

Confidentiality

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.  The confidentiality provisions of the Statistics Act are not affected by either the Access to Information Act or any other legislation. Therefore, for example, the Canada Revenue Agency cannot access identifiable survey records from Statistics Canada.

Information from this survey will be used for statistical purposes only and will be published in aggregates form only.

This questionnaire should be completed and mailed to Statistics Canada, Operations and Integration Division, JT2-B17, 150 Tunney's Pasture, Ottawa, Ontario, K1A 0T6 or fax it to 1-800-755-5514 in time to be in Ottawa by the 15th of the month following the month under review.

Data Sharing Agreements

To reduce response 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 their own mandatory basis, and the legislation must provide substantially the same provisions for the 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, Québec, 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 the federal, provincial or territorial government organizations. Under Section 12, you may refuse to share your information with any of these organizations by writing a letter of objection to the Chief Statistician and returning it with the completed questionnaire. Please specify the organizations with which you do not want to share your data.

For this survey, there are Section 12 agreements with the statistical agencies of Prince Edward Island, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut and with the Ontario Ministry of Energy, Manitoba Innovation, Energy and Mines, Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources, Alberta Energy Department, the Alberta Energy Resources Conservation Board, British Columbia Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources, National Energy Board, Natural Resources Canada and Environment Canada.

For agreements with provincial and territorial government organizations, the shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province or territory.

Note that there is no right of refusal with respect to sharing the data with the Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources and Alberta Energy Resources Conservation Board. In addition to being collected under the Statistics Act, the information is collected pursuant to The Oil and Gas Conservation Act and Regulations, 1985 (Saskatchewan) and The Mineral Resources Act (Saskatchewan) on behalf of Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources, and section 65 of the Alberta Coal Conservation Regulation and sections 12.050 - 12.053 of the Alberta Gas and Oil Conservation Regulation, on behalf of the Alberta Energy Resources Conservation Board.

Record Linkages

To enhance the data from this survey, Statistics Canada may combine it with information from other surveys or from administrative sources.

Summary of Reporting Instructions - See reporting guide for more details

(a) Transfers - Inter-products: Report the net movement of product into or out of another product within a given province. Net transfers into a product are to be shown on the relevant product page as a positive entry, and net transfers out of a product are to be shown on the other product page as a negative entry. The sum of all products movements should thus equal zero.

(d) and (i) Receipts and Deliveries from/to other reporting companies: Report all exchanges of product with any companies listed on the reverse side of the first page of this schedule. Complete when changes in titles occur for exchanges under sales agrements, loans exchange agreements, etc. On the reverse side of the product pages, please enter the names of the reporting companies involved and the amount exchanged with each.

(e) Receipts from non-reporting companies: Report all receipts of product from any companies whose names do not appear on the “List of Reporting Companies”.

(g) and (h) Inventories: Report inventories including those that result from inter-company transactions (see above). As a consequence, if a change in title of a product has occurred (and has been reported), even if the product remains in the tanks of the “delivering” company, this product should nonetheless be reported as inventory of the “receiving” company. The opening inventory should correspond with the closing inventory of the pevious month.

(m) Net Sales in Canada: Report all sales of finished and unfinished products where such sales have taken place. This line is the sum of lines (a) and (b), PLUS lines (d) to (g), LESS line (c), LESS lines (h) to (l).

Purpose of the Survey

To obtain information on the supply of and demand for energy in Canada. This information serves as an important indicator of Canadian economic performance, is used by all levels of government in establishing informed policies in the energy area and, in the case of public utilities, is used by governmental agencies to fulfil their regulatory responsibilities. The private sector likewise uses this information in the corporate decision-making process.

Your information may also be used by Statistics Canada for other statistical and research purposes.

Confidentiality

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.  The confidentiality provisions of the Statistics Act are not affected by either the Access to Information Act or any other legislation. Therefore, for example, the Canada Revenue Agency cannot access identifiable survey records from Statistics Canada.

Information from this survey will be used for statistical purposes only and will be published in aggregates form only.

Data Sharing Agreements

To reduce response 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 their own mandatory basis, and the legislation must provide substantially the same provisions for the 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, Québec, 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 the federal, provincial or territorial government organizations. Under Section 12, you may refuse to share your information with any of these organizations by writing a letter of objection to the Chief Statistician and returning it with the completed questionnaire. Please specify the organizations with which you do not want to share your data.

For this survey, there are Section 12 agreements with the statistical agencies of Prince Edward Island, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut and with the Ontario Ministry of Energy, Manitoba Innovation, Energy and Mines, Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources, Alberta Energy Department, the Alberta Energy Resources Conservation Board, British Columbia Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources, National Energy Board, Natural Resources Canada and Environment Canada.

For agreements with provincial and territorial government organizations, the shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province or territory.

Note that there is no right of refusal with respect to sharing the data with the Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources and Alberta Energy Resources Conservation Board. In addition to being collected under the Statistics Act, the information is collected pursuant to The Oil and Gas Conservation Act and Regulations, 1985 (Saskatchewan) and The Mineral Resources Act (Saskatchewan) on behalf of Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources, and section 65 of the Alberta Coal Conservation Regulation and sections 12.050 - 12.053 of the Alberta Gas and Oil Conservation Regulation, on behalf of the Alberta Energy Resources Conservation Board.

Do not include sales/deliverables to other reporting companies, as these are not considered to be sales, but transfers between reporting companies in the Monthly Refined Petroleum Products Reports.

This short form questionnaire has been designed for use by respondents whose operations are such that the long form is not necessary. As a consequence, this short form does not request data on refinery operations. Further, only the major refined petroleum products are indicated. However, respondents are requested to complete one "Other Product" section for each additional product (from the list below) in which they deal.

Additional Products

  • Butane and butane mixes
  • Petrochemical feedstocks
  • Naphtha specialties
  • Aviation gasoline
  • Aviation turbo fuel (Kerosene type)
  • Aviation turbo fuel (Naphtha type)
  • Asphalt
  • Petroleum coke (including coke from catalytic cracker)
  • Wax and candles
  • Unfinished products

a) Transfers Inter-Products

Report the net movement of product into or out of another product within a given province. Such transfers should be restricted to marketing purposes where, for example, the situation requires the sale of diesel as light fuel oil.

Net transfers into a product are to be shown on that product page as a positive entry, and net transfers out of a product are to be shown on the relevant product page as a negative entry. The sum of all such product movements should thus equal zero.

b) and c)Transfers Inter-Provincial in and Transfers Inter-Provincial out

Report the gross movement of each product between provinces. The company holding title to the product as it crosses a provincial boundary will report the amounts involved. Do not report transfers made for another account if ownership lies with the other company. Conversely, you should report transfers made on your behalf by another company provided ownership remains with you during the period of transfer.

Note 1: An inter-provincial transfer may be necessary following an import or a receipt from a reporting or non-reporting company.

The following example illustrates how a combined inter-provincial transfer and inter-product transfer should be recorded.

Company "A" purchases diesel fuel oil from Company "B" in Quebec (both are respondents to this survey) and the change in ownership takes place in Quebec. Company "A" then sells this product as light fuel oil in Ontario.

Company "A" should report the following:

  1. A receipt "From other reporting companies" of diesel fuel in Quebec, (line 7).
  2. An inter-provincial transfer of diesel fuel out of Quebec, into Ontario (lines 5 and 6).
  3. An inter-product transfer out of diesel fuel into light fuel oil in Ontario (line 2).

Company "B" should report only a delivery of diesel fuel "to other reporting companies" in Quebec (line 12).

Note 2: For each product, the Canadian level total shown on line 5 must equal that reported on line 6.

d) Receipts from Other Reporting Companies

Receipts from and deliveries to another reporting company relate to situations where a change in title to the product being transferred has occurred even if the product remains in the tanks of the "delivering" company. This concept of "receipts" and "deliveries" therefore obviously affects the measurement of inventories ‑ see sections g) and h) of these instructions.

Report all receipts of product from any companies listed on the back of the first page of the questionnaire. Include actual receipts emanating from sales agreements, processing agreements, exchanges, loans, etc. Exclude, however, loan agreements, exchanges, loans, etc. , which are based on future production. The quantities reported as receipts should agree with the amounts shown on the delivering companies' invoices or delivery notices and should be entered under the provinces where the change in title occurred. In most instances, this transaction takes place at the supply point ‑ i.e. Refinery, Terminal or Bulk plant gates. If all or any part of the amounts received are then shipped to another province before disposition, please make the appropriate inter-provincial transfers entries (lines 5 and 6).

Receipts of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)'s from gas processing plants should be recorded on line 8 "Receipts from non-reporting companies" even though such plants could be owned by reporting companies.

If refinery-produced butane is purchased from another reporting company for blending into some other product, show both the receipt of the butane and an "Inter-product transfer" to the appropriate product.

Details of inter-company transactions are required where the transactions are for amounts of 200 cubic metres or more.

Please report the receipts in the same product classifications as those shown on the delivering companies' invoices. If all or any part of the amounts received are used in product classifications other than those shown on the invoices, the receiving company must make the appropriate inter-product transfer entries on line 2.

On the reverse side of the product pages, please enter the names of the reporting companies involved and the amount received from each. For each province, the sum of these amounts should agree with line 7 entries on the front of the page.

e) Receipts from Non-Reporting Companies

Report all receipts of product from any companies whose names do not appear on the "List of Reporting Companies" (see back of the first page of the questionnaire).

Note 1: "Paybacks" of quantities of product delivered in a previous month to a non-reporting company and originally reported as a "Net sale in Canada" (under an exchange agreement), should not be recorded and "corrected" in the current month as "negative" receipt (line 8) or as a "negative" sale (line 16). Instead of adjusting a current month for a previous entry, please inform Statistics Canada by way of a note, indicating in detail the nature of the transaction.

Note 2: On the reverse side of the product pages, please enter the names of the "non-reporting" companies involved and the amounts received from each. For each province, the sum of these amounts should agree with line 8 entries on the front of the page.

f) Imports

Report the physical receipts of finished and unfinished products received from sources outside Canada. The company which clears the product through customs, or on whose behalf it was cleared, should report the import. If all or any part of the amount imported is used in a product classification other than that indicated on the customs entry document, the appropriate inter-products transfer must be made (line 2). Similarly, if the product is transported to a province other than that indicated on the entry form, the proper inter-provincial transfer (lines 5 and 6) must be made after recording the import in the province of entry.

g) and h) Inventories

Report all marketing inventories. The opening inventory for the reporting month should match the reported closing inventory of the previous month. Inventories should include those that result from inter-company transactions. As a consequence, if a change in title of a product has occurred (and has been reported), even if the product remains in the tanks of the "delivering" company, this product should nonetheless be reported as inventory of the "receiving" company. Inventories should not include any quantities of product linked to future production for the purpose of loan or repayment.

Revisions to Inventories:

It is noted that the inventory figures are sometimes subject to revision. When such revisions are made, respondents should be guided by the following:

  • Minor adjustments of under 200 cubic metres; the opening inventory of the month following the month in error would remain unchanged, with the difference being absorbed in the losses and adjustment item for the current month.
  • Major adjustments of over 200 cubic metres; the opening inventory of the month following the month in error should be reported correctly. Revised figures for the previous (incorrectly reported) month should also be provided.

i) Deliveries to Other Reporting Companies

Report all deliveries of product to any companies listed on the reverse side of the first page of the questionnaire. Include actual deliveries emanating from sales agreements, processing agreements, exchanges, loans, etc. Exclude, however, any agreements, exchanges, loans, etc. based on future production. The quantities reported as deliveries should be credited to the province where the change in ownership occurred. In most instances, this transaction takes place at the supply point ‑ i.e. Terminal or Bulk plant gates.

Details of inter-company transactions are required where the transactions are 200 cubic metres and over. On the reverse side of the product pages, please enter the names of the reporting companies involved and the amount delivered to each. For each province, the sum of these amounts should agree with line 12 entries on the front of the page.

j) Exports

Report all sales of finished or unfinished products for export (include domestic sales known for export market) outside Canada credited to the province of exit. Note that any inter-provincial movement should be recorded as an inter-provincial transfer on lines 5 and 6.

k) Losses & Adjustments

Report all marketing losses due to metering differences, shrinkage, spillage, etc. Include also any adjustments caused by inventory revisions.

l) Own Consumption

Report all amounts of product produced or purchased and used in company operations. Exclude petro-chemical feedstocks shipments to own petro-chemical complexes, and own production fuels used to generate electricity, to heat office buildings and to move goods (by air, road or ship). These products should be reported on line 16 ‑ Net Sales in Canada.

m) Net Sales in Canada

Report all sales of finished and unfinished products (exclude domestic sales known for export market) for the provinces where such sales have taken place.

Note: Net Sales include any Ethanol/Methanol, MTBE/ETBE (Methyl or Ethyl-Tertiary-Butyl-Ether), TAME (Tertiary-Amyl-Methyl-Ether), TBA (Tertiary-Butyl-Alcohol) and other components blended into gasoline which has been added before final sale of any motor gasoline. This line is the sum of lines 7 to 10 (Receipts from Other Reporting companies + Receipts from Other Non-Reporting Companies + Imports + Opening Inventories), and lines 2 and 5 (Transfers Inter-Products + Inter-Provincial Transfers In) LESS lines 11 to 15 (Closing Inventories, Deliveries to Other Reporting Companies, Exports, Losses and Adjustments, and Own Consumption) and LESS line 6 (Inter-Provincial Transfers Out).

This figure should thus agree with the total monthly sales, by product and province, actually made by the company, less any sales "to other reporting companies" (line 12) and less any direct exports (line 13).

n) Page 5, Line 17 All Sales of Motor Gasoline Through Retail Pumps

Report here all sales of motor gasoline (including any ethanol/ methanol, MTBE / ETBE , TAME , TBA and other similar additives added) to retail outlets, including marinas, irrespective of the type of ownership or operation. Include own brands, subsidiary brands, or an authoritative estimate of retail sales of the respondent's jobbers, resellers, agents, etc.

Note: Any "Card-lock" (Key-lock) facility sales should not be included in this category.

Page 7, Line 17 ‑ Volumn of Net Sales (low sulphur content)

Report here all sales of diesel fuel oil with sulphur content lower than 0.05%.

Page 9, Line 17 ‑ Volumn of Net Sales (low sulphur content)

Report here all sales of heavy fuel oil with sulphur content lower than 1.0%.

Page 11 ‑ Total, All Products

This section of the report is the sum of all products reported.

Note 1: The totals of all inter-products transfers (line 2) should add to "zero".

Note 2: The Canadian total line 5 should equal the total of line 6.

Supplement ‑ Motor Gasoline Sales: Disposition of Motor Gasoline

1. Sales by "grade"

Report here by grade (Premium, Mid-grade, Regular no-lead and Regular leaded) a breakdown of the net sales shown on page 5 line 16 of the motor gasoline section.

2. Components Blended into Motor Gasoline

  • Report all quantities of alcohols:
    • Line 6 (i) Ethanol – A light volatile alcohol intended for gasoline blending.
    • Line 7 (ii) Methanol – The simplest alcohol blended to increase the oxygen level in gasoline. Also called methyl alcohol, wood alcohol and wood spirit.
    • Line 8 (iii) TBA (Tertiary Butyl Alcohol) – An alcohol primarily used as a chemical feedstock, a solvent or feedstock for isobutylene production for MTBE .
  • Report all quantities of ethers such as
    • Line 9 (i) MTBE (Methyl tertiary butyl ether) – A gasoline additive produced from methanol and isobutylene used to increase the octane number and oxygen content of gasoline.
    • (ii) ETBE (Ethyl tertiary butyl ether) – A gasoline additive produced from ethanol and isobutylene for increasing the octane rating and oxygen content of gasoline while reducing its volatility. Similar to MTBE .
    • (iii) TAME (Tertiary amyl methyl ether) – An oxygenate blend stock formed by the catalytic etherification of isoamylene with methanol.
  • Report all other blending components.

Annex 1: Product Classification of Refined Petroleum Products

The following list should be used as a guide when completing the questionnaire. As it is not feasible to list all brand names in use in the industry, this list is intended only to give a reasonable sample of product names that have been established by common use. It should be noted that, where descriptive names do not provide adequate identification, the emphasis for classification purposes has been put on the end use of the product. In cases where products have brand names that are misleading for classification purposes, or are re‑brands of basic products, classification should be determined according to the basic products used, e.g. Weed Killer (Naphtha Specialties), Pole Treating Oil (Heavy Fuel), Dust Layer (Asphalt), etc.

Section A Concerns Refining Companies only

Section A – Refinery Supply of Crude Oil and Equivalent – Page 1

Note: Please ensure that data reported in questions 1 through 8 do not include any crude tops, crude bottoms or partially refined products. Please refer to question 9 for the treatment of such products.

1. Receipts from Fields in

Report actual receipts at refineries of all domestic crude oil and equivalent for refinery consumption or storage excluding any propane or butanes received for refinery processing, blending or for sale as specification product. Give separate figures for receipts from each supply region, credited to the province or region in which the refinery is located.

Supplying regions are Western and Eastern Canada:

Western = Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia, Northwest and Yukon Territories.
Eastern = Specify: Newfoundland and Labrador, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Québec and Ontario.

2. Imports From

Report actual imports of all foreign crude oil and equivalent at refineries. Give separate figures for each supplying foreign country, credited to the province or region in which the refinery is located.

3. Grand Total of Receipts

This total (line 17) must agree, by province or region, to the sum of lines 3 (domestic) and 16 (imported).

Note: If your refinery has been involved in the exchange of crude in the surveyed month, it should be reported on question 4.

  1. By pipeline

    Report the total of all domestic and foreign crude oil and equivalent actually received into refinery tankage from pipeline, for refinery consumption.
    These reported receipts from pipelines must agree with the deliveries to refineries as reported by the pipeline companies to Statistics Canada.

  2. By other means

    Report the total of all domestic and foreign crude oil and equivalent actually received into the refinery from means other than pipelines, i.e. tank car, tank truck, tankers, etc.

Note 1: The sum of (i) and (ii) must agree, by province and region, with the entry "Grand total of receipts" line 17.

Note 2: Transfers by a reporting company from itself to itself in the current month from one province to another of crude and equivalent reported as a receipt in a previous period should be treated as follows: the amount transferred should be shown as a negative in the "Delivering" province and as a positive in the "Receiving" provinces on the relevant line/lines of questions 1 and 2 (i.e. lines 1 through 16). In this manner a "double-count" of crude from domestic or foreign sources will be avoided.

Transfers of crude and equivalent from one province to another sent "by other means" but received by "pipeline" should be shown as a negative quantity in line 19 "other means" in the "delivering" province and as a positive quantity in "pipeline" line 18 in the "receiving" province. The reverse can obviously also apply.

4. Transfers – to Other Reporting Companies and from Other Reporting Companies

Report here any domestic and imported crude oil, condensate and pentanes plus which has been transferred to other reporting companies and/or which has been received from other reporting companies.

5. Inventories

Inventories reported must be in refinery tankage only. Do not include pipeline fill. Report, by province or region, both crude oil and equivalent held in inventory at the beginning and the end of the month.

Revisions to Inventories:

It is noted that the inventory figures are sometimes subject to revision. When such revisions are made, respondents should be guided by the following:

  • Minor adjustments of under 200 cubic metres; the opening inventory of the month following the month in error would remain unchanged, with the difference being absorbed in the losses and adjustment item for the current month.
  • Major adjustments of over 200 cubic metres; the opening inventory of the month following the month in error should be reported correctly. Revised figures for the previous (incorrectly reported) month should also be provided.

6. Losses and Adjustments

Report any losses due to spillage, metering differences, etc. after receipt of the crude into refinery storage. Also include any adjustments caused by inventory revisions.

7. Total Crude and Equivalent Charged

Indicate the total quantity of crude oil and equivalent run to stills. Total crude and equivalent charged (line 25) should correspond to grand total of receipts (line 17) minus transfers to other reporting companies (line 20) plus transfers from other reporting companies (line 21) plus opening inventories (line 22) minus closing inventories (line 23) minus losses and adjustments (line 24).

Section A – Feedstocks Charged - Page 2

8. Crude and Equivalent Charged, by Type

The total reported at line 25 of page 1 should be reported according to the five following categories:

  1. Conventional Crude Oil, Light/Medium — all crude of 26oAPI and over, but excluding processed synthetic production (Syncrude, Suncor), condensate and pentanes plus.
  2. Conventional Crude Oil, Heavy — all crude under 26oAPI (900 kg) which in its natural viscous state could initially be recovered with primary pumping techniques (based on Alberta Energy Utilities Board).
  3. Synthetic Crude Oil — the processed production from Syncrude, Suncor and any future similar synthetic crude plants. In terms of specific gravity, this oil is classified as "light".
  4. Crude Bitumen — heavy oil, normally below 20oAPI, never recoverable at a commercial rate without in-situ technology. This oil is produced from the defined Oil Sands areas of Alberta, as is Synthetic Crude of (iii) above.
  5. Condensate and Pentanes — those low density oils having an API rating over 40oAPI.

9. Other Materials Used in Operation

The following explanation concerns refinery, feedstocks, other than crude oil, includes any materials:

  1. commingled with the crude charged
  2. charged directly through the distillation tower
  3. charged into refinery processing units such as alkylation’s, cracking, reforming, etc.

Other materials used in operation must be materials received from sources external to the reporting refinery. These must not include any internal reprocessing of materials withdrawn from inventories or from refinery recycling operations.

Note 1: Excludes internal reprocessing of unfinished products produced and reported in a previous month. If unfinished products are being recharged to a process within the same refinery, the derived production would be transferred from page 21 to the appropriate products using the "inter products transfers" line.
Includes unfinished products received from other refineries which will be charged into the refinery process. See annex 2 for definition of unfinished products.

Note 2: Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)'s received from outside the refinery and used for blending or sold as such should not be included.

For each of the following products, indicate the quantity charged, and if imported, please indicate the country of origin in the stub.

  1. Crude tops — that portion of the crude oil input that remains after the refinery (e.g. asphalt plant) has extracted the desired heavy products and which portion must be transferred to another refinery for further processing.
  2. Crude bottoms — that portion of the crude oil input that remains after the refinery has extracted the desired light products and which portion must be transferred to another refinery for further processing.
  3. Liquefied petroleum gases
  4. Natural gas used as a refinery feedstock (exclude any natural gas used for heating or as fuel). Such natural gas should be expressed in cubic metres of heavy fuel oil equivalent.
  5. Lubricating oils and lubricating base stock etc. to be reprocessed.
  6. Other feedstock including additives.

Note: Each of the products listed above must appear as a receipt at lines (5), (7), (8) or (9) of Section B of the questionnaire on the page of the most appropriate product. Further, the quantity must also appear at line 3 "Transfers to Refinery Feedstocks" of the same product page. The resultant "production" (line 1) of any given refined product will thus be the production from both 'crude and equivalent' and 'other materials charged'.

For example, a quantity of Butane, commingled with crude charged must be shown in 4 places:

  1. an input on page 2 line 8 "Liquefied petroleum gases".
  2. on the most appropriate product page "Butane" page 4. In this example line 8 as a receipt from a non-reporting company.
  3. transfer to refinery feedstock line 3 of the Butane page.
  4. refinery production line 1 for possibly several products.

Total Other Materials Charged as Feedstock

Indicate the sum of items reported on lines 6 through 11. This figure should agree with line 3, page 22.

10. Total Feedstocks Charged

Indicate the sum of "Crude Oil and Equivalent Charged" (line 25, page 1) and "Other Materials Charged" (line 12, page 2). This figure should agree with line 1, page 22.

Section B Concerns both Refiners and Distributors

Section B – Refiners Petroleum Products - Pages 3 to 23

Except where indications are given to the contrary, the following instructions relate to all the products shown on the questionnaire numbered 1 to 18, except for product #17, "refinery losses", where lines 1 and 14, are the only lines to apply.

a) Refinery Production

Report, by province or region in which the refinery is located, the calendar month's refinery production from crude oil and equivalent and from other materials used in the refining operation. Production of each product should be measured on a "net yield" level; that is, the stage after exchanges between the various processes of the refinery.

However, for propane and propane mixes ‑ Product 1(A), and butane and butane mixes ‑ Product 1(B), report all refinery production of these products intended:

  1. for own use at the refinery, including:
    1. butane for blending with motor gasoline
    2. LPG's used as petrochemical feedstock’s

      In these two instances, the quantities of LPG's used for these purposes, should initially be reported at a) production line 1 and then at b) Inter-product Transfers line 2 on the LPG pages.

    3. all other refinery own use
  2. for sale as such
  3. for inter‑provincial transfer or for sale to other reporting companies even though the eventual use of the product may be for blending into some other product.

Under no circumstances should propane or butanes be shown as unfinished products merely because of doubt regarding final disposition.

Further, for Petrochemical Feedstock’s ‑ Product 2, page 5 report refinery gases and other first derivates of petroleum used internally ‑ or sold ‑ as raw material for the production of petrochemical products. (However, the production of LPG's for petrochemical feedstock must be treated in the manner described above, namely that the quantity of LPG's used as petrochemical feedstock will initially be shown as production on the LPG's pages and will then be transferred to the petrochemical feedstock page by use of the interproduct transfer line 2). Petrochemical feedstock are therefore defined as those products fed into crackers to produce such basic petrochemicals as ethylene, propylene, butylenes, butadiene, benzene, toluene, and xylene: Exclude from petrochemical feedstock’s naphtha used to make hydrocarbon solvents see "Naphtha Specialties". For a more detailed description of the method of treating petrochemical feedstock’s, see Annex I.

Finally, in the case of refinery losses, product 17, page 20, since there is produced a greater volume of finished products (whose specific gravity is lighter than the raw material input run to stills) than the volume of feedstock charged, this section is normally used to balance production to "Runs to stills" by means of a negative entry. Respondents should make proper use of this section, and not incorrectly enter negative production figures in "Unfinished products", product 18, as the balancing item.

b) Transfers ‑ inter‑products

Report the net movement of product into or out of another product within a given province. Since the production is measured at the 'net yield' level, the inter-product transfer line should be restricted to marketing purposes where for example, the situation requires the sale of Diesel as, say, Light fuel oil.

Net transfers into a product are to be shown on the product page without parentheses e.g. 12,345.

Net transfers out of a product are to be shown as in parentheses e.g. (12,345).

Exception 1: In product 1A Propane and propane mixes page 3 and 1B Butane and butane mixes page 4, the inter-product transfers line is to be used for other than market­ing purposes; that is, to record transfers to Petrochemical feedstock’s and to Motor Gasoline. The same amounts must also be reported on the petrochemical feedstock and/or Motor gasoline product pages.
Exception 2: For product 18, Unfinished Products, the inter-products transfers' line is used to transfer amounts of unfinished product to the appropriate end product.

c) Transfers to Refinery Feedstocks

This line must be used for reporting those quantities of previously refined products, partially refined products and other materials used which are to be processed through the refinery for the production of refined products.

Report, by province and region, the quantity of these materials used as refinery feedstock i.e. quantities sent to distillation or other refinery units which were previously received from sources outside of the reporting refinery. These materials (crude tops, crude bottoms, LPG's, lube oil for recycling, other feedstock’s) should be shown on the most appropriate product page(s) and the total should equate with figures shown on page 2 question 9 "Other Materials used in operation". Thus the addition of line 3 product 1A (propane) and line 3 product 1B (butane) should equal line 8, page 2, "LPG's used as refinery feedstock". The amounts of these non-crude feeds being transferred to refinery feedstock at line 3 will also be shown as a receipt on the same page on the most appropriate line:

  • 5 Transfers inter-provincial in
  • 7 Receipts from other reporting companies
  • 8 Receipts from non-reporting companies
  • 9 Imports

The subtraction of line 3 precludes the possibility of double counting since the quantities have already been included in production and in the receipt line(s) 5, 7, 8, 9.

d) This line applies only to the three products indicated below. The quantities reported form a part of the total reported at line 2, Transfers — Interproducts. This line, i.e. line 4, is a non-additive line and must be excluded from the calculations used to arrive at the final entry, namely "Net Sales in Canada".

Product 1(A) Propane and propane mixes

Product 1(B) Butane and butane mixes

Use line 4 to indicate that quantity of these products transferred to "Petrochemical Feedstock’s".

Product 2. Petrochemical Feedstock’s

Use line 4 to indicate that quantity of energy by-products returned to the refinery operations from the petrochemical operations. (See Annex I for a more detailed description).

e) Transfers ‑ inter-provincial in

Report the gross movement of each product entering one province from another. The company holding title to the product as it crosses a provincial boundary will report the amounts involved. Do not report transfers made for another account if ownership lies with the other company. Conversely, you should report transfers made on your behalf by another company provided ownership remains with you during the period of transfer.

f) Transfers ‑ inter-provincial out

Report the gross movement of each product leaving one province for another. The company holding title to the product as it crosses a provincial boundary will report the amounts involved. Do not report transfers made for another account if ownership lies with the other company. Conversely, you should report transfers made on your behalf by another company provided ownership remains with you during the period of transfer.

Note 1: An inter-provincial transfer may be necessary following a receipt from a reporting or non-reporting company, or an import.

The following example illustrates how a combined inter-provincial transfer and inter-product transfer should be recorded.

Company "A" purchases diesel fuel oil from Company "B" in Quebec (both are respondents to this survey) and the change in ownership takes place in Quebec. Company "A" then sells this product as light fuel oil in Ontario.
Company "A" should report the following:

  1. A receipt "From other reporting companies" of diesel fuel in Quebec, (line 7).
  2. An inter-provincial transfer of diesel fuel out of Quebec, into Ontario, (lines 5 and 6).
  3. An inter-product transfer out of diesel fuel into light fuel oil in Ontario, (line 2) in products 9 and 10.

Company "B" should report only a delivery of diesel fuel "to other reporting companies" in Quebec, (line 12).

Note 2: For each product, the Canadian level total shown on line 5 must equal that reported on line 6.

g) Receipts from Other Reporting Companies

Receipts from and deliveries to another reporting company relate to situations where a change in title to the product being transferred has occurred even if the product remains in the tanks of the "delivering" company. This concept of "receipts" and "deliveries" therefore obviously affects the measurement of inventories ‑ see sections j) and k) of these instructions.

Report all receipts of product from any companies listed on the back of the first page of the questionnaire. Include actual receipts emanating from sales agreements, processing agreements, exchanges, loans, etc. Exclude, however, any agreements, exchanges, loans, etc., which are based on future production. The quantities reported as receipts should agree with the amounts shown on the delivering companies' invoices or delivery notices and should be entered under the provinces where the change in title occurred. In most instances, this transaction takes place at the supply point ‑ i.e. Refinery, Terminal or Bulk plant gates. If all or any part of the amounts received are then shipped to another province before disposition, make the appropriate inter‑provincial transfers entries (lines 5 and 6).

Receipts of LPG's from gas processing plants should be recorded on line 8 "Receipts from non-reporting companies" even though such plants could be owned by reporting companies. If refinery-produced butane is purchased from another reporting company for blending into some other product, show both the receipt of the butane and an "Inter-product transfer" to the appropriate product.

Details of inter-company transactions are required where the transactions are for amounts of 200 cubic metres or more.

Please report the receipts in the same product classifications as those shown on the delivering companies' invoices. If all or any part of the amounts received are used in product classifications other than those shown on the invoices, the receiving company must make the appropriate inter-product transfer entries on line 2.

On the reverse side of the product pages, please enter the names of the reporting companies involved and the amount received from each.  For each province, the sum of these amounts should agree with line 7 entries on the front of the page.

Sample Transactions:

  1. A selling company which markets in more than one province could make the following entries: in line 6 "Inter-provincial Out" of his own province to the province of secondary receipt, which would be recorded under the appropriate section of line 5 "Inter-provincial In" and from there disposed as a delivery to another reporting company, as an export, a loss or adjustment or as a net sale in Canada, etc.
  2. A company could perform the above "Inter-provincial transfers In" or "Out" and then transfer the product to another classification through use of line 2 "Transfers ‑ inter-products" e.g. Diesel fuel to light fuel oil, Butane to Petrochemical feedstocks, etc.

h) Receipts from Non-reporting Companies

Report all receipts of product from any companies whose names do not appear on the "List of Reporting Companies" (see back of the first page of the questionnaire).

Note 1: "Paybacks" of quantities of product delivered in a previous month to a non-reporting company and originally reported as a "Net sale in Canada" (under an exchange agreement), should not be recorded and "corrected" in the current month as "negative" receipt (line 8) or as a "negative" sale (line 16). Instead of adjusting a current month for a previous entry, please inform Statistics Canada by way of a note, indicating in detail the nature of the transaction.

Note 2: On the reverse side of the product pages, please enter the names of the "non-reporting" companies involved and the amounts received from each. For each province, the sum of these amounts should agree with line 8 entries on the front of the page.

All receipts of LPG from gas processing plants (even if owned by a reporting company) for use within the reporting refinery should be initially recorded on the propane/butane pages as "receipts from non-reporting companies". Subsequently:

  1. Any quantity blended with other products should be recorded as a movement 'out' on the inter-products transfers’ line to the relevant products.
  2. Any quantity destined to petrochemical feedstock’s should be similarly recorded, but with the actual quantity also shown at line 4 of the propane/butane pages.
  3. Any quantity used in alkylation’s and similar processing units should be recorded at line 3 "Transfers to refinery feedstock’s". Such quantity would then be recorded at line 8 of page 2, and the resultant production there from would be included in the production of the relevant refined products.
  4. Any quantity commingled with crude oil would be accorded the same treatment as (3) above.

i) Imports

Report the physical receipts of finished and unfinished products received from sources outside Canada. The company which clears the product through customs, or on whose behalf it was cleared, should report the import. If all or any part of the amount imported is used in a product classification other than that indicated on the customs entry document, the appropriate inter-products transfer must be made, (lines 2). Similarly, if the product is transported to a province other than that indicated on the entry form, the proper inter-provincial transfer (lines 5 and 6) must be made after recording the import in the province of entry.

j) and k) Inventories

Report all refinery and marketing inventories. The opening inventory for the reporting month should match the reported closing inventory of the previous month.

Inventories should include those that result from inter company transactions. As a consequence, if a change in title of a product has occurred (and has been reported), even if the product remains in the tanks of the "delivering" company, this product should nonetheless be reported as inventory of the "receiving" company. Inventories should not include any quantities of product linked to future production for the purpose of loan or repayment.

Revisions to Inventories:

It is noted that the inventory figures are sometimes subject to revision. When such revisions are made, respondents should be guided by the following:

  • Minor adjustments of under 200 cubic metres; the opening inventory of the month following the month in error would remain unchanged, with the difference being absorbed in the losses and adjustment item for the current month.
  • Major adjustments of over 200 cubic metres; the opening inventory of the month following the month in error would be corrected with the provision to Statistics Canada of an explanation and also the corrected entities.

l) Deliveries to Other Reporting Companies

Report all deliveries of product to any companies listed on the reverse side of the first page of this schedule. Include actual deliveries emanating from sales agreements, processing agreements, exchanges, loans, etc. Exclude, however, any agreements, exchanges, loans, etc. based on future production. The quantities reported as deliveries should be credited to the province where the change in ownership occurred. In most instances, this transaction takes place at the supply point ‑ i.e. Refinery, Terminal or Bulk plant gates.

Details of inter-company transactions are required where the transactions are 200 cubic metres and over.

On the reverse side of the product pages, please enter the names of the reporting companies involved and the amount delivered to each. For each province, the sum of these amounts should agree with the line 12 entries on the front of the page.

m) Export

Report all sales of finished or unfinished products for exports (include domestic sales known for export market) outside Canada credited to the province of exit. Note that any inter-provincial movement should be recorded as an inter-provincial transfer on lines 5 and 6.

n) Losses & Adjustments

Reports all refinery or marketing losses due to metering differences, shrinkage, spillage, etc. Include also any adjustments caused by inventory revisions.

o) Own Consumption

Report all amounts of product produced or purchased and used in company operations. Exclude petro-chemical feedstock’s shipments to own petro-chemical complexes, and own production fuels used to generate electricity, to heat office buildings and to move goods (by air, road or ship). These products should be reported on line 16 -Net Sales in Canada.

p) Net Sales in Canada

Report all sales of finished and unfinished products (exclude domestic sales known for export market) for the provinces where such sales have taken place.

Note: On page 8, include any Ethanol/Methanol, MTBE/ETBE (Methyl or Ethyl-Tertiary-Butyl-Ether), Tame (Tertiary-Amyl-Methyl-Ether), TBA (Tertiary-Butyl Alcohol) and other components blended into gasoline which have been added before the final sale of any motor gasoline. This line is the sum of lines 7 to 10 (Receipts from Other Reporting companies + receipts from other Non Reporting companies + Imports + Opening Inventories), and lines 1, 2 and 5 (Refinery Production + Transfers + Interprovincial Transfers In) LESS lines 11 to 15 (Closing Inventories, Deliveries to other reporting companies, Exports, losses and adjustments, and own consumption) and LESS lines 3 and 6 (Transfers to Refinery Feedstock and Interprovincial Transfers Out). This figure should thus agree with the total monthly sales, by product and province, actually made by the company, less any sales "to other reporting companies", (line 12) and less any direct exports (line 13).

q) Page 8, Line 17 — All Sales of Motor Gasoline Through Retail Pumps

Report here all sales of motor gasoline (including ethanol/ methanol, MTBE/ETBE, TAME, TBA and other similar additives added) to retail outlets including marinas, irrespective of the type of ownership or operation. Include own brands, subsidiary brands, the known, or an authoritative estimate of retail sales of the respondent's jobbers, resellers, agents, etc.

Note: Any "Card-lock" (Key-lock) facility sales should not be included on this line.

Page 12, Line 17 — Volume of Net Sales (Low Sulphur Content)

Report here all sales of diesel fuel oil with sulphur content lower than 0.05%.

Page 14, Line 17 — Volume of Net Sales (Low Sulphur Content)

Report here sales of heavy fuel oil (4+5+6) with sulphur content lower than 1%.

Page 22, Product 19 — Total All Products

This page of the report is the sum of products 1A) to 18 of Section B.

  • Note 1: Line 1, "Refinery production" should agree with the volumes shown in Section A, page 2 final line i.e. Total feedstock’s charged.

  • Note 2: The totals of all inter-products transfers (line 2) should add to "nil".

  • Note 3: Line 3, "Transfers to refinery feedstocks" should equal line 12 of page 2, "Total Other Materials Charged as Feedstock".

  • Note 4: The Canadian total, line 5 should equal the total of line 6.

Page 23, Supplement to page 8 — Motor Gasoline Sales: Disposition of Motor Gasoline

1. Sales by "Grade"

Report here by grade (Premium, Mid-grade, Regular non-leaded and Regular leaded) a breakdown of the net sales shown on page 8, line 16.

2. Components Blended into motor Gasoline

  1. Report all quantities of alcohols:
    • Line 6 (i) Ethanol — a light volatile alcohol intended for gasoline blending.
    • Line 7 (ii) Methanol — the simplest alcohol blended to increase the oxygen level in gasoline. Also called methyl alcohol, wood alcohol and wood spirit.
    • Line 8 (iii) TBA (Tertiary Butyl Alcohol) — an alcohol primarily used as a chemical feedstock, a solvent or feedstock for isobutylene production for MTBE.
  2. Report all quantities of ethers such as
    • Line 9 (i) MTBE (Methyl tertiary butyl ether) — A gasoline additive produced from methanol and isobutylene used to increase the octane number and oxygen content of gasoline.
    • (ii) ETBE (Ethyl tertiary butyl ether) – A gasoline additive produced from ethanol and isobutylene for increasing the octane rating and oxygen content of gasoline while reducing its volatility. Similar to MTBE.
    • (iii) TAME (Tertiary amyl methyl ether) – An oxygenate blend stock formed by the catalytic etherification of isoamylene with methanol.
  3. Report all other blending components.

Annex 1:
Supplement to Product #2 - Petrochemical Feedstock’s

I. General Definitions

1. Petrochemical feedstocks:

  1. ethane, propane, butane from atmospheric distillation of crude oil and delivered to petrochemical operations;
  2. ethane, ethylene, propane, propylene, butane, butylenes butadiene, produced in secondary refining operations such as catalytic cracking, hyrocracking, reforming, etc. - which are delivered to petrochemical operations or used internally by the refiner for the production of higher olefins or other petrochemicals;
  3. pentane, naphtha’s [1], middle distillates, gas oil, raffinates delivered to steam cracking operations for petrochemical manufacture;
  4. aromatic feed streams from reformers e.g. heart cut fed to solvent extraction units for recovery of benzene, toluene, xylene, and hexane.

See page 16 for details on the petrochemical feedstock stream.

2. Backflow to Refinery of Energy By-products:

Those materials obtained from the processing of the petrochemical feedstock in the petrochemical units which are returning to normal refinery production (e.g. raffinates, polymers, C9+ aromatics, for gasoline blending).

3. Net Petrochemical Feedstocks:

This net figure equal’s gross petrochemical feedstock’s sent by the refinery to petrochemical activities less the backflow of energy by-products; therefore, representing the net disappearance of petrochemical feedstock’s needed for Canadian petrochemical activities.

II. Reporting Procedures

  • Rule #1: LPG's produced in the refinery and destined to petrochemical activities must be reported initially on the LPG's product pages as production (line 1) and then transferred to the petrochemical feedstock’s product page through interproducts transfers (line 2).

  • Rule #2: Production of petrochemical feedstock’s can be reported by two methods (see examples below). The "net yield" method is preferred, that is, net petrochemical feedstock’s (refer to definitions in I).

  • Rule #3: The amount of backflow to the refinery of energy by products must be shown on line 4 of the petrochemical feedstock’s product page (line 4 is a non-additive line). By using the "net yield" reporting method, this backflow will not be added to the production of petrochemical feedstock’s but will be included in the production of the appropriate products (e.g. motor gasoline).

If the "gross" reporting method is used, the backflow must be transferred to the appropriate product page by the inter‑products transfers line.

[1] Exclude product "naphtha specialties".

III. Examples

Example 1Net Yield Method (Recommended)

Crude input 250 Mogas Petrochem Unfinished Total
Refinery Production 110 30 110 250
Backflow (memo item only)   20    
Net sales in Canada 110 30 110 250

In this method, the backflow adjustments have already been applied to the production of motor gasoline and unfinished products. The net petrochemical feedstock’s equals 30 and the gross petrochemical feedstock’s 50 which is 30 plus the backflow of 20. The interproduct transfer’s line is not used.

Example 2Gross method of petrochemical feedstock’s (Alternative)

Crude input 250 Mogas Petrochem Unfinished Total
Refinery Production   100 50 100 250
Backflow (memo item only)   20    
Interproduct Transfer  +10 -20   +10  
Net sales in Canada   110 30 110 250

In this method, the refinery production equals the gross petrochemical feedstock’s (50). The backflow (20) is transferred to motor gasoline (10) and to unfinished products (10) by interproducts transfers line; the net petrochemical feedstock’s is therefore 30.

Annex 2: Product Classification
Section B, Refined Petroleum Products

The following list should be used as a guide when completing Section B. As it is not feasible to list all brand names in use in the industry, this list is intended only to give a reasonable sample of product names that have been established by common use. It should be noted that, where descriptive names do not provide adequate identification, the emphasis for classification purposes has been put on the end use of the product. In cases where products have brand names that are misleading for classification purposes, or are re‑brands of basic products, classification should be determined according to the basic products used, e.g. Weed Killer (Naphtha Specialties), Pole Treating Oil (Heavy Fuel), Dust Layer (Asphalt), etc.

Product Category Description

13. Petroleum coke........................... (including coke from catalytic cracker) All petroleum coke included.
Petroleum coke is obtained mainly by cracking and carbonising of residue feedstock’s, tar and pitches in processes such as delayed coking or fluid coking. The two most important qualities are green coke and calcinated coke. This category also includes catalyst coke deposited on the catalyst during refining processes: this coke is not recoverable and is usually burned as refinery fuel.

16. Still gas (still gas)........................ The remaining unseparated gaseous fractions produced in refinery distillation or cracking processes, after marketable products have been extracted. This is usually consumed as refinery fuel although sales have been made to public gas utilities under certain circumstances.
17. Refiney losses............................. The volumetric change between refinery input of raw materials and output for finished products. Since greater volumes of finished products whose specific gravity is lighter than crude oil is produced in most modern refineries, there will usually be negative quantities or gains.
18. Unfinished product....................... The volume in process in a refinery at any particular point in time that cannot be identified in end product terms. Also, imports or purchases of blending agents in inventory where the end product may be in doubt.
19. Total all products......................... Grand total of all Finished Petroleum Products, Products no. 1(A) to 18 inclusive.

To eliminate the inconsistency of product classification between purchaser and seller, occurring when products are moved between companies, the purchaser will report the purchase in the product classification for which he was invoiced by the seller; the purchase will then be inter-product transferred into the product classification in which it will be disposed.

Section 1 – Closing inventories

  1. Held in lines
    Inventories reported must be in pipeline lines only in cubic metres. Do not include volumes held in tanks. Report volumes separately for crude oil, condensate and pentanes plus, propane, butane, other.  Inventories should be actual physical volumes in lines at the end of the reporting month.  Report, by province or region of origin, both crude oil, condensate and pentanes plus held in lines.
  2. Held in tanks
    Inventories reported must be in pipeline tankage only in cubic metres. Do not include pipeline fill. Report volumes separately for crude oil, condensate and pentanes plus, propane, butane, other. Inventories should be actual physical volumes in tanks at the end of the reporting month.  Report, by province or region of origin, both crude oil, condensate and pentanes plus held in tanks.
  3. Shipper
    Report here closing inventories owned by the shipper in cubic metres.  This includes all inventories in lines and tanks. Report volumes separately for crude oil, condensate and pentanes plus, propane, butane, other.
  4. Carrier
    Report here closing inventories owned by the carrier in cubic metres.  This includes all inventories in lines and tanks. Report volumes separately for crude oil, condensate and pentanes plus, propane, butane, other.

Note: Volumes Held in lines plus volumes Held in tanks must equal to volumes Shipper plus volumes Carrier.  Section A: Total closing inventories must equal to Section 4: Summary of Deliveries, column one, Closing Inventories.

Revisions to Inventories:

It is noted that the inventory figures are sometimes subject to revision.  When such revisions are made, respondents should be guided by the following:

  • Minor adjustments of under 200 cubic metres; the opening inventory of the month following the month in error would remain unchanged, with the difference being absorbed in the losses and adjustment item for the current month.
  • Major adjustments of over 200 cubic metres; the opening inventory of the month following the month in error should be reported correctly.  Revised figures for the previous (incorrectly reported) month should also be provided.

Section 2 – Cubic metre kilometres

1. Cubic metre kilometres

One cubic metre of product moved one kilometre; metric tonne kilometres are calculated by converting cubic metre kilometres of product to the equivalent weight in metric tonnes.  Only trunk line system cubic metre kilometres are included because of the difficulty of collecting reliable and consistent data for gathering systems together with the fact that gathering systems have a very short average commodity mile movement.  As a result, their inclusion would add only a very small percentage to the total.  The average kilometre per cubic metre is the distance each cubic metre of product travelled.  Volumes are reported in thousands of cubic metres.

Therefore you calculate the cubic metre kilometres by multiplying the number of cubic metres of product by the distance travelled.

Section 3 - Summary of receipts

1. Objectives, uses and users

1.1. Objective

The Monthly Retail Trade Survey (MRTS) provides information on the performance of the retail trade sector on a monthly basis, and when combined with other statistics, represents an important indicator of the state of the Canadian economy.

1.2. Uses

The estimates provide a measure of the health and performance of the retail trade sector. Information collected is used to estimate level and monthly trend for retail sales. At the end of each year, the estimates provide a preliminary look at annual retail sales and performance.

1.3. Users

A variety of organizations, sector associations, and levels of government make use of the information. Retailers rely on the survey results to compare their performance against similar types of businesses, as well as for marketing purposes. Retail associations are able to monitor industry performance and promote their retail industries. Investors can monitor industry growth, which can result in better access to investment capital by retailers. Governments are able to understand the role of retailers in the economy, which aids in the development of policies and tax incentives. As an important industry in the Canadian economy, governments are able to better determine the overall health of the economy through the use of the estimates in the calculation of the nation’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP).

2. Concepts, variables and classifications

2.1. Concepts

The retail trade sector comprises establishments primarily engaged in retailing merchandise, generally without transformation, and rendering services incidental to the sale of merchandise.

The retailing process is the final step in the distribution of merchandise; retailers are therefore organized to sell merchandise in small quantities to the general public. This sector comprises two main types of retailers, that is, store and non-store retailers. The MRTS covers only store retailers. Their main characteristics are described below. Store retailers operate fixed point-of-sale locations, located and designed to attract a high volume of walk-in customers. In general, retail stores have extensive displays of merchandise and use mass-media advertising to attract customers. They typically sell merchandise to the general public for personal or household consumption, but some also serve business and institutional clients. These include establishments such as office supplies stores, computer and software stores, gasoline stations, building material dealers, plumbing supplies stores and electrical supplies stores.

In addition to selling merchandise, some types of store retailers are also engaged in the provision of after-sales services, such as repair and installation. For example, new automobile dealers, electronic and appliance stores and musical instrument and supplies stores often provide repair services, while floor covering stores and window treatment stores often provide installation services. As a general rule, establishments engaged in retailing merchandise and providing after sales services are classified in this sector. Catalogue sales showrooms, gasoline service stations, and mobile home dealers are treated as store retailers.

2.2. Variables

Sales are defined as the sales of all goods purchased for resale, net of returns and discounts. This includes commission revenue and fees earned from selling goods and services on account of others, such as selling lottery tickets, bus tickets, and phone cards. It also includes parts and labour revenue from repair and maintenance; revenue from rental and leasing of goods and equipment; revenues from services, including food services; sales of goods manufactured as a secondary activity; and the proprietor’s withdrawals, at retail, of goods for personal use. Other revenue from rental of real estate, placement fees, operating subsidies, grants, royalties and franchise fees are excluded.

Trading Location is the physical location(s) in which business activity is conducted in each province and territory, and for which sales are credited or recognized in the financial records of the company. For retailers, this would normally be a store.

Constant Dollars: The value of retail trade is measured in two ways; including the effects of price change on sales and net of the effects of price change. The first measure is referred to as retail trade in current dollars and the latter as retail trade in constant dollars. The method of calculating the current dollar estimate is to aggregate the weighted value of sales for all retail outlets. The method of calculating the constant dollar estimate is to first adjust the sales values to a base year, using the Consumer Price Index, and then sum up the resulting values.

2.3. Classification

The Monthly Retail Trade Survey is based on the definition of retail trade under the NAICS (North American Industry Classification System). NAICS is the agreed upon common framework for the production of comparable statistics by the statistical agencies of Canada, Mexico and the United States. The agreement defines the boundaries of twenty sectors. NAICS is based on a production-oriented, or supply based conceptual framework in that establishments are groups into industries according to similarity in production processes used to produce goods and services.

Estimates appear for 21 industries based on special aggregations of the 2007 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) industries. The 21 industries are further aggregated to 11 sub-sectors.

Geographically, sales estimates are produced for Canada and each province and territory.

3. Coverage and frames

Statistics Canada’s Business Register ( BR) provides the frame for the Monthly Retail Trade Survey. The BR is a structured list of businesses engaged in the production of goods and services in Canada. It is a centrally maintained database containing detailed descriptions of most business entities operating within Canada. The BR includes all incorporated businesses, with or without employees. For unincorporated businesses, the BR includes all employers with businesses, and businesses with no employees with annual sales that have a Goods and Services Tax (GST) or annual revenue that declares individual taxes.  annual sales greater than $30,000 that have a Goods and Services Tax (GST) account (the BR does not include unincorporated businesses with no employees and with annual sales less than $30,000).

The businesses on the BR are represented by a hierarchical structure with four levels, with the statistical enterprise at the top, followed by the statistical company, the statistical establishment and the statistical location. An enterprise can be linked to one or more statistical companies, a statistical company can be linked to one or more statistical establishments, and a statistical establishment to one or more statistical locations.

The target population for the MRTS consists of all statistical establishments on the BR that are classified to the retail sector using the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) (approximately 200,000 establishments). The NAICS code range for the retail sector is 441100 to 453999. A statistical establishment is the production entity or the smallest grouping of production entities which: produces a homogeneous set of goods or services; does not cross provincial boundaries; and provides data on the value of output, together with the cost of principal intermediate inputs used, along with the cost and quantity of labour used to produce the output. The production entity is the physical unit where the business operations are carried out. It must have a civic address and dedicated labour.

The exclusions to the target population are ancillary establishments (producers of services in support of the activity of producing goods and services for the market of more than one establishment within the enterprise, and serves as a cost centre or a discretionary expense centre for which data on all its costs including labour and depreciation can be reported by the business), future establishments, establishments with a missing or a zero gross business income (GBI) value on the BR and establishments in the following non-covered NAICS:

  • 4541 (electronic shopping and mail-order houses)
  • 4542 (vending machine operators)
  • 45431 (fuel dealers)
  • 45439 (other direct selling establishments)

4. Sampling

The MRTS sample consists of 10,000 groups of establishments (clusters) classified to the Retail Trade sector selected from the Statistics Canada Business Register. A cluster of establishments is defined as all establishments belonging to a statistical enterprise that are in the same industrial group and geographical region. The MRTS uses a stratified design with simple random sample selection in each stratum. The stratification is done by industry groups (the mainly, but not only four digit level NAICS), and the geographical regions consisting of the provinces and territories, as well as three provincial sub-regions. We further stratify the population by size.

The size measure is created using a combination of independent survey data and three administrative variables: the annual profiled revenue, the GST sales expressed on an annual basis, and the declared tax revenue (T1 or T2). The size strata consist of one take-all (census), at most, two take-some (partially sampled) strata, and one take-none (non-sampled) stratum. Take-none strata serve to reduce respondent burden by excluding the smaller businesses from the surveyed population. These businesses should represent at most ten percent of total sales. Instead of sending questionnaires to these businesses, the estimates are produced through the use of administrative data.

The sample was allocated optimally in order to reach target coefficients of variation at the national, provincial/territorial, industrial, and industrial groups by province/territory levels. The sample was also inflated to compensate for dead, non-responding, and misclassified units.

MRTS is a repeated survey with maximisation of monthly sample overlap. The sample is kept month after month, and every month new units are added (births) to the sample.  MRTS births, i.e., new clusters of establishment(s), are identified every month via the BR’s latest universe. They are stratified according to the same criteria as the initial population. A sample of these births is selected according to the sampling fraction of the stratum to which they belong and is added to the monthly sample. Deaths occur on a monthly basis. A death can be a cluster of establishment(s) that have ceased their activities (out-of-business) or whose major activities are no longer in retail trade (out-of-scope). The status of these businesses is updated on the BR using administrative sources and survey feedback, including feedback from the MRTS. Methods to treat dead units and misclassified units are part of the sample and population update procedures.

5. Questionnaire design

The Monthly Retail Trade Survey incorporates the following sub-surveys:

Monthly Retail Trade Survey - R8

Monthly Retail Trade Survey (with inventories) – R8

Survey of Sales and Inventories of Alcoholic Beverages

The questionnaires collect monthly data on retail sales and the number of trading locations by province or territory and inventories of goods owned and intended for resale from a sample of retailers. The items on the questionnaires have remained unchanged for several years. For the 2004 redesign, the general questionnaires were subject to cosmetic changes only. The questionnaire for Sales and Inventories of Alcoholic Beverages underwent more extensive changes. The modifications were discussed with stakeholders and the respondents were given an opportunity to comment before the new questionnaire was finalized. If further changes are needed to any of the questionnaires, proposed changes would go through a review committee and a field test with respondents and data users to ensure its relevancy.

6. Response and nonresponse

6.1. Response and non-response

Despite the best efforts of survey managers and operations staff to maximize response in the MRTS, some non-response will occur. For statistical establishments to be classified as responding, the degree of partial response (where an accurate response is obtained for only some of the questions asked a respondent) must meet a minimum threshold level below which the response would be rejected and considered a unit nonresponse.  In such an instance, the business is classified as not having responded at all.

Non-response has two effects on data: first it introduces bias in estimates when nonrespondents differ from respondents in the characteristics measured; and second, it contributes to an increase in the sampling variance of estimates because the effective sample size is reduced from that originally sought.

The degree to which efforts are made to get a response from a non-respondent is based on budget and time constraints, its impact on the overall quality and the risk of nonresponse bias.

The main method to reduce the impact of non-response at sampling is to inflate the sample size through the use of over-sampling rates that have been determined from similar surveys.

Besides the methods to reduce the impact of non-response at sampling and collection, the non-responses to the survey that do occur are treated through imputation. In order to measure the amount of non-response that occurs each month, various response rates are calculated. For a given reference month, the estimation process is run at least twice (a preliminary and a revised run). Between each run, respondent data can be identified as unusable and imputed values can be corrected through respondent data. As a consequence, response rates are computed following each run of the estimation process.

For the MRTS, two types of rates are calculated (un-weighted and weighted). In order to assess the efficiency of the collection process, un-weighted response rates are calculated. Weighted rates, using the estimation weight and the value for the variable of interest, assess the quality of estimation. Within each of these types of rates, there are distinct rates for units that are surveyed and for units that are only modeled from administrative data that has been extracted from GST files.

To get a better picture of the success of the collection process, two un-weighted rates called the ‘collection results rate’ and the ‘extraction results rate’ are computed. They are computed by dividing the number of respondents by the number of units that we tried to contact or tried to receive extracted data for them. Non-monthly reporters (respondents with special reporting arrangements where they do not report every month but for whom actual data is available in subsequent revisions) are excluded from both the numerator and denominator for the months where no contact is performed.

In summary, the various response rates are calculated as follows:

Weighted rates:

Survey Response rate (estimation) =
Sum of weighted sales of units with response status i / Sum of survey weighted sales

where i = units that have either reported data that will be used in estimation or are converted refusals, or have reported data that has not yet been resolved for estimation.

Admin Response rate (estimation) =
Sum of weighted sales of units with response status ii / Sum of administrative weighted sales

where ii = units that have data that was extracted from administrative files and are usable for estimation.

Total Response rate (estimation) =
Sum of weighted sales of units with response status i or response status ii / Sum of all weighted sales

Un-weighted rates:

Survey Response rate (collection) =
Number of questionnaires with response status iii/ Number of questionnaires with response status iv

where iii = units that have either reported data (unresolved, used or not used for estimation) or are converted refusals.

where iv = all of the above plus units that have refused to respond, units that were not contacted and other types of non-respondent units.

Admin Response rate (extraction) =
Number of questionnaires with response status vi/ Number of questionnaires with response status vii

where vi = in-scope units that have data (either usable or non-usable) that was extracted from administrative files

where vii = all of the above plus units that have refused to report to the administrative data source, units that were not contacted and other types of non-respondent units.

(% of questionnaire collected over all in-scope questionnaires)

Collection Results Rate =
Number of questionnaires with response status iii / Number of questionnaires with response status viii

where iii = same as iii defined above

where viii = same as iv except for the exclusion of units that were contacted because their response is unavailable for a particular month since they are non-monthly reporters.

Extraction Results Rate =
Number of questionnaires with response status ix / Number of questionnaires with response status vii

where ix = same as vi with the addition of extracted units that have been imputed or were out of scope

where vii = same as vii defined above

(% of questionnaires collected over all questionnaire in-scope we tried to collect)

All the above weighted and un-weighted rates are provided at the industrial group, geography and size group level or for any combination of these levels.

Use of Administrative Data

Managing response burden is an ongoing challenge for Statistics Canada. In an attempt to alleviate response burden and survey costs, especially for smaller businesses, the MRTS has reduced the number of simple establishments in the sample that are surveyed directly and instead derives sales data for these establishments from Goods and Service Tax (GST) files using a statistical model. The model accounts for differences between sales and revenue (reported for GST purposes) as well as for the time lag between the survey reference period and the reference period of the GST file.

For more information on the methodology used for modeling sales from administrative data sources, refer to ‘Monthly Retail Trade Survey: Use of Administrative Data’ under ‘Documentation’ of the IMDB.

Table 1 contains the weighted response rates for all industry groups as well as for total retail trade for each province and territory. For more detailed weighted response rates, please contact the Marketing and Dissemination Section at (613) 951-3549, toll free: 1-877-421-3067 or by e-mail at retailinfo@statcan.

6.2. Methods used to reduce non-response at collection

Significant effort is spent trying to minimize non-response during collection. Methods used, among others, are interviewer techniques such as probing and persuasion, repeated re-scheduling and call-backs to obtain the information, and procedures dealing with how to handle non-compliant (refusal) respondents.

If data are unavailable at the time of collection, a respondent's best estimates are also accepted, and are subsequently revised once the actual data become available.

To minimize total non-response for all variables, partial responses are accepted. In addition, questionnaires are customized for the collection of certain variables, such as inventory, so that collection is timed for those months when the data are available.

Finally, to build trust and rapport between the interviewers and respondents, cases are generally assigned to the same interviewer each month. This action establishes a personal relationship between interviewer and respondent, and builds respondent trust.

7. Data collection and capture operations

Collection of the data is performed by Statistics Canada’s Regional Offices.

Weighted Response Rates

Respondents are sent a questionnaire or are contacted by telephone to obtain their sales and inventory values, as well as to confirm the opening or closing of business trading locations. Collection of the data begins approximately 7 working days after the end of the reference month and continues for the duration of that month.

New entrants to the survey are introduced to the survey via an introductory letter that informs the respondent that a representative of Statistics Canada will be calling. This call is to introduce the respondent to the survey, confirm the respondent's business activity, establish and begin data collection, as well as to answer any questions that the respondent may have.

8. Editing

Data editing is the application of checks to detect missing, invalid or inconsistent entries or to point to data records that are potentially in error. In the survey process for the MRTS, data editing is done at two different time periods.

First of all, editing is done during data collection. Once data are collected via the telephone, or via the receipt of completed mail-in questionnaires, the data are captured using customized data capture applications. All data are subjected to data editing. Edits during data collection are referred to as field edits and generally consist of validity and some simple consistency edits. They are used to detect mistakes made during the interview by the respondent or the interviewer and to identify missing information during collection in order to reduce the need for follow-up later on. Another purpose of the field edits is to clean up responses. In the MRTS, the current month’s responses are edited against the respondent’s previous month’s responses and/or the previous year’s responses for the current month. Field edits are also used to identify problems with data collection procedures and the design of the questionnaire, as well as the need for more interviewer training.

Follow-up with respondents occurs to validate potential erroneous data following any failed preliminary edit check of the data. Once validated, the collected data is regularly transmitted to the head office in Ottawa.

Secondly, editing known as statistical editing is also done after data collection and this is more empirical in nature. Statistical editing is run prior to imputation in order to identify the data that will be used as a basis to impute non-respondents. Large outliers that could disrupt a monthly trend are excluded from trend calculations by the statistical edits. It should be noted that adjustments are not made at this stage to correct the reported outliers.

The first step in the statistical editing is to identify which responses will be subjected to the statistical edit rules. Reported data for the current reference month will go through various edit checks.

The first set of edit checks is based on the Hidiriglou-Berthelot method whereby a ratio of the respondent’s current month data over historical (last month, same month last year) or auxiliary data is analyzed. When the respondent’s ratio differs significantly from ratios of respondents who are similar in terms of industry and/or geography group, the response is deemed an outlier.

The second set of edits consists of an edit known as the share of market edit. With this method, one is able to edit all respondents, even those where historical and auxiliary data is unavailable. The method relies on current month data only. Therefore, within a group of respondents, that are similar in terms of industrial group and/or geography, if the weighted contribution of a respondent to the group’s total is too large, it will be flagged as an outlier.

For edit checks based on the Hidiriglou-Berthelot method, data that are flagged as an outlier will not be included in the imputation models (those based on ratios). Also, data that are flagged as outliers in the share of market edit will not be included in the imputation models where means and medians are calculated to impute for responses that have no historical responses.

In conjunction with the statistical editing after data collection of reported data, there is also error detection done on the extracted GST data. Modeled data based on the GST are also subject to an extensive series of processing steps which thoroughly verify each record that is the basis for the model as well as the record being modeled. Edits are performed at a more aggregate level (industry by geography level) to detect records which deviate from the expected range, either by exhibiting large month-to-month change, or differing significantly from the remaining units. All data which fail these edits are subject to manual inspection and possible corrective action.

9. Imputation

Imputation in the MRTS is the process used to assign replacement values for missing data. This is done by assigning values when they are missing on the record being edited to ensure that estimates are of high quality and that a plausible, internal consistency is created. Due to concerns of response burden, cost and timeliness, it is generally impossible to do all follow-ups with the respondents in order to resolve missing responses. Since it is desirable to produce a complete and consistent microdata file, imputation is used to handle the remaining missing cases.

In the MRTS, imputation is based on historical data or administrative data (GST sales). The appropriate method is selected according to a strategy that is based on whether historical data is available, auxiliary data is available and/or which reference month is being processed.

There are three types of historical imputation methods. The first type is a general trend that uses one historical data source (previous month, data from next month or data from same month previous year). The second type is a regression model where data from previous month and same month previous year are used simultaneously. The third type uses the historical data as a direct replacement value for a non-respondent. Depending upon the particular reference month, there is an order of preference that exists so that top quality imputation can result. The historical imputation method that was labelled as the third type above is always the last option in the order for each reference month.

The imputation methods using administrative data are automatically selected when historical information is unavailable for a non-respondent. The administrative data source (annual GST sales) is the basis of these methods. The annual GST sales are used for two types of methods. One is a general trend that will be used for simple structure, e.g. enterprises with only one establishment, and a second type is called median-average that is used for units with a more complex structure.

10. Estimation

Estimation is a process that approximates unknown population parameters using only part of the population that is included in a sample. Inferences about these unknown parameters are then made, using the sample data and associated survey design. This stage uses Statistics Canada's Generalized Estimation System (GES).

For retail sales, the population is divided into a survey portion (take-all and take-some strata) and a non-survey portion (take-none stratum). From the sample that is drawn from the survey portion, an estimate for the population is determined through the use of a Horvitz-Thompson estimator where responses for sales are weighted by using the inverses of the inclusion probabilities of the sampled units. Such weights (called sampling weights) can be interpreted as the number of times that each sampled unit should be replicated to represent the entire population. The calculated weighted sales values are summed by domain, to produce the total sales estimates by each industrial group / geographic area combination. A domain is defined as the most recent classification values available from the BR for the unit and the survey reference period. These domains may differ from the original sampling strata because units may have changed size, industry or location. Changes in classification are reflected immediately in the estimates and do not accumulate over time. For the non-survey portion, the sales are estimated with statistical models using monthly GST sales.

For more information on the methodology for modeling sales from administrative data sources which also contributes to the estimates of the survey portion, refer to ‘Monthly Retail Survey: Use of Administrative Data’ under ‘Documentation’ of the IMDB.

The measure of precision used for the MRTS to evaluate the quality of a population parameter estimate and to obtain valid inferences is the variance. The variance from the survey portion is derived directly from a stratified simple random sample without replacement.

Sample estimates may differ from the expected value of the estimates. However, since the estimate is based on a probability sample, the variability of the sample estimate with respect to its expected value can be measured. The variance of an estimate is a measure of the precision of the sample estimate and is defined as the average, over all possible samples, of the squared difference of the estimate from its expected value.

11. Revisions and seasonal adjustment

Revisions in the raw data are required to correct known non-sampling errors. These normally include replacing imputed data with reported data, corrections to previously reported data, and estimates for new births that were not known at the time of the original estimates. Raw data are revised, on a monthly basis, for the month immediately prior to the current reference month being published. That is, when data for December are being published for the first time, there will also be revisions, if necessary, to the raw data for November. In addition, revisions are made once a year, with the initial release of the February data, for all months in the previous year. The purpose is to correct any significant problems that have been found that apply for an extended period. The actual period of revision depends on the nature of the problem identified, but rarely exceeds three years. Time series contain the elements essential to the description, explanation and forecasting of the behaviour of an economic phenomenon: "They are statistical records of the evolution of economic processes through time."1 Economic time series such as the Monthly Retail Trade Survey can be broken down into five main components: the trend-cycle, seasonality, the trading-day effect, the Easter holiday effect and the irregular component.

The trend represents the long-term change in the series, whereas the cycle represents a smooth, quasi-periodical movement about the trend, showing a succession of growth and decline phases (e.g., the business cycle). These two components—the trend and the cycle—are estimated together, and the trend-cycle reflects the fundamental evolution of the series. The other components reflect short-term transient movements.

The seasonal component represents sub-annual, monthly or quarterly fluctuations that recur more or less regularly from one year to the next. Seasonal variations are caused by the direct and indirect effects of the climatic seasons and institutional factors (attributable to social conventions or administrative rules; e.g., Christmas).

The trading-day component originates from the fact that the relative importance of the days varies systematically within the week and that the number of each day of the week in a given month varies from year to year. This effect is present when activity varies with the day of the week. For instance, Sunday is typically less active than the other days, and the number of Sundays, Mondays, etc., in a given month changes from year to year.

The Easter holiday effect is the variation due to the shift of part of April’s activity to March when Easter falls in March rather than April.

Lastly, the irregular component includes all other more or less erratic fluctuations not taken into account in the preceding components. It is a residual that includes errors of measurement on the 1. A Note on the Seasonal adjustment of Economic Time Series», Canadian Statistical Review, August 1974.  A variable itself as well as unusual events (e.g., strikes, drought, floods, major power blackout or other unexpected events causing variations in respondents’ activities).

Thus, the latter four components—seasonal, irregular, trading-day and Easter holiday effect—all conceal the fundamental trend-cycle component of the series. Seasonal adjustment (correction of seasonal variation) consists in removing the seasonal, trading-day and Easter holiday effect components from the series, and it thus helps reveal the trend-cycle. While seasonal adjustment permits a better understanding of the underlying trend-cycle of a series, the seasonally adjusted series still contains an irregular component. Slight month-to-month variations in the seasonally adjusted series may be simple irregular movements. To get a better idea of the underlying trend, users should examine several months of the seasonally adjusted series.

Since April 2008, Monthly Retail Trade Survey data are seasonally adjusted using the X-12- ARIMA2 software. The technique that is used essentially consists of first correcting the initial series for all sorts of undesirable effects, such as the trading-day and the Easter holiday effects, by a module called regARIMA. These effects are estimated using regression models with ARIMA errors (auto-regressive integrated moving average models). The series can also be extrapolated for at least one year by using the model. Subsequently, the raw series—pre-adjusted and extrapolated if applicable— is seasonally adjusted by the X-11 method.

The X-11 method is used for analysing monthly and quarterly series. It is based on an iterative principle applied in estimating the different components, with estimation being done at each stage using adequate moving averages3. The moving averages used to estimate the main components—the trend and seasonality—are primarily smoothing tools designed to eliminate an undesirable component from the series. Since moving averages react poorly to the presence of atypical values, the X-11 method includes a tool for detecting and correcting atypical points. This tool is used to clean up the series during the seasonal adjustment. Outlying data points can also be detected and corrected in advance, within the regARIMA module.

Lastly, the annual totals of the seasonally adjusted series are forced to the annual totals of the original series.

Unfortunately, seasonal adjustment removes the sub-annual additivity of a system of series; small discrepancies can be observed between the sum of seasonally adjusted series and the direct seasonal adjustment of their total. To insure or restore additivity in a system of series, a reconciliation process is applied or indirect seasonal adjustment is used, i.e. the seasonal adjustment of a total is derived by the summation of the individually seasonally adjusted series.

12. Data quality evaluation

The methodology of this survey has been designed to control errors and to reduce their potential effects on estimates. However, the survey results remain subject to errors, of which sampling error is only one component of the total survey error. Sampling error results when observations are made only on a sample and not on the entire population. All other errors arising from the various phases of a survey are referred to as nonsampling errors. For example, these types of errors can occur when a respondent provides incorrect information or does not answer certain questions; when a unit in the target population is omitted or covered more than once; when GST data for records being modeled for a particular month are not representative of the actual record for various reasons; when a unit that is out of scope for the survey is included by mistake or when errors occur in data processing, such as coding or capture errors.

Prior to publication, combined survey results are analyzed for comparability; in general, this includes a detailed review of individual responses (especially for large businesses), general economic conditions and historical trends.

A common measure of data quality for surveys is the coefficient of variation (CV). The coefficient of variation, defined as the standard error divided by the sample estimate, is a measure of precision in relative terms. Since the coefficient of variation is calculated from responses of individual units, it also measures some non-sampling errors.

The formula used to calculate coefficients of variation (CV) as percentages is:

CV (X) = S(X) * 100% / X
where X denotes the estimate and S(X) denotes the standard error of X.

Confidence intervals can be constructed around the estimates using the estimate and the CV. Thus, for our sample, it is possible to state with a given level of confidence that the expected value will fall within the confidence interval constructed around the estimate. For example, if an estimate of $12,000,000 has a CV of 2%, the standard error will be $240,000 (the estimate multiplied by the CV). It can be stated with 68% confidence that the expected values will fall within the interval whose length equals the standard deviation about the estimate, i.e. between $11,760,000 and $12,240,000.

Alternatively, it can be stated with 95% confidence that the expected value will fall within the interval whose length equals two standard deviations about the estimate, i.e. between $11,520,000 and $12,480,000.

Finally, due to the small contribution of the non-survey portion to the total estimates, bias in the non-survey portion has a negligible impact on the CVs. Therefore, the CV from the survey portion is used for the total estimate that is the summation of estimates from the surveyed and non-surveyed portions.

13. Disclosure control

Statistics Canada is prohibited by law from releasing any data which would divulge information obtained under the Statistics Act that relates to any identifiable person, business or organization without the prior knowledge or the consent in writing of that person, business or organization. Various confidentiality rules are applied to all data that are released or published to prevent the publication or disclosure of any information deemed confidential. If necessary, data are suppressed to prevent direct or residual disclosure of identifiable data.

Confidentiality analysis includes the detection of possible "direct disclosure", which occurs when the value in a tabulation cell is composed of a few respondents or when the cell is dominated by a few companies.
