Unionization Rates

Question

Is it possible to obtain the unionization rate (presumably the percentage of the active labour force which is unionized) within each federal electoral district. Do such statistics currently exist? If not, could a table providing this level of geographic detail produced from the Labour Force Survey? Could it be created for various years of the LFS (to show historic changes over time), assuming a common set of FEDs? What would be the cost of producing each such table (assuming that it could be produced)?

Answer


Unfortunately this data is not available. The Labour Force Survey does not produce data at the Federal District level.
