2011 National and Provincial Multipliers

Question
We have a researcher who is interested in the national and provincial multipliers. He was able to download the 2010 data from Abacus, and I see it is also included in the WDS.

HOWEVER, it seems that the System of macroeconomic accounts release dates are listed at http://www.statcan.gc.ca/eng/nea/dates/index, and, when I click on National and provincial multipliers, I see a release date of January 19, 2015 for the 2011 data. Was this data actually released, and, if so, can it please be made available?

Answer
"The posting on the release date page is an error. The 2011 Input-Output multipliers were never released. The last version was released for reference year 2010 on February 10, 2014."

This error will be corrected and the page will be fixed to reflect the latest version.
