Method and limits. Each balance is domestic exports to China minus imports from China, summed across a complete twelve-month period. Source: Statistics Canada 12-10-0175-01 · customs basis · unadjusted · nominal CAD. Exports are attributed by province of production; imports by customs clearance, which may differ from where goods are consumed. Missing monthly observations withhold the affected annual balance. These provincial figures are not directly comparable to the seasonally adjusted national balance-of-payments headline card. Official data ↗
Evidence boundary: Import clearance and export production geographies are not necessarily the final destination or buyer. Provincial customs balances cannot be compared directly to seasonally adjusted balance-of-payments headline balances.
