Canadian industries differ markedly in the extent to which they engage in internal trade, exchanging goods and services across provincial and territorial borders. Using indices derived from Statistics Canada's recently released 2022 provincial input–output tables, specifically the ratio of internal trade to industry output and the ratio of internal trade to gross domestic product (GDP), analysis shows that some industries are highly reliant on internal trade, accounting for up to two-thirds of their output. In contrast, other industries exhibit minimal dependence on internal trade (36-10-0712-01).
