ICO Q4 2014

Question

Is the ICO available to the public for free (from non-DLI sources) or does it have to be purchased? When I went to the order form, I didn't see a price for it but neither did I see anything indicating it is free. 

Answer

Yes, the open licence agreement applies and yes it is now free per the Statistics Canada policy.

As the CD is no longer available, should external clients wish to obtain the ICO information, please ask them to email the external email address and they will arrange for their permissions to the Statistics Canada ICO EFT {Electronic file transfer} service.

Udated Products - ICO Q4 2014

Please note the products listed below and the path to access them via the DLI EFT.

Inter-corporate ownership (ICO) – Q4 2014


This product is a directory of corporate ownership in Canada that provides information on every individual corporation that is part of a group of commonly controlled corporations with combined assets exceeding $600 million or combined revenue exceeding $200 million. Individual corporations with debt obligations or equity owing to non-residents exceeding a net book value of $1 million are covered as well.

Ultimate corporate control is determined through a careful study of holdings by corporations, the effects of options, insider holdings, convertible shares and interlocking directorships.

The information presented is based on non-confidential returns filed by Canadian corporations under the Corporations Returns Act and on research using public sources such as Internet sites. Entries for each corporation provide both the country of control and the country of residence.

Labour Force Survey (LFS) – December 2014

LFS data for December 2014 are now available on the EFT site.

The Labour Force Survey estimates are based on a sample, and are therefore subject to sampling variability.

Updated Products: RTSS 2013

Residential Telephone Service Survey (RTSS)

The Residential Telephone Service Survey (RTSS) has been conducted since the fall of 1996. The RTSS monitors residential phone penetration rates. Initially, the survey was sponsored by Bell Canada to assess reasons why certain households did not have telephone service. Later, with the increased popularity of cellular phones, the focus of the survey switched to the types of telephone service used by households. Survey results will be used by statisticians to calculate chances of reaching households by telephone.
