Question
My colleague was working with these files and made the following observation:
On the just released Survey on Financing of Co-operatives, 2007, the
data are in these two files, English and French.
efco2007dat.xls H1, H2. Caractéristiques des coopératives,
selon les valeurs moyennes de l’actif et du
passif de la coopérative, Canada, 2008
sfco2007dat.xls H1, H2. Characteristics of co-operatives, by
average assets and liabilities of
co-operatives,
Canada, 2008
If one of these files said 2008, I would assume it was a typo. However,
both say 2008, so either the title of the survey is wrong or the file
descriptions are wrong.
Answer
Since the survey was conducted in February and March of 2008, so the
2007 must refer to the reference year, and one way or another, both
years are correct.
However, the real problem with the file description is that the file
contains not only table H1, H2, but a total of about 40 tables, of which
H1, H2 is only the last sheet. I have a list of the titles of all the
English language tables (sorry, haven't checked the French file) at:

under the Notes section, should anyone find it useful.
