More Info/PermalinkThis product is based on data from the adult and youth components of the Integrated Criminal Court Survey (ICCS). The ICCS is administered by the Canadian Centre for Justice and Community Safety Statistics (Statistics Canada) in collaboration with provincial and territorial government departments responsible for criminal courts in Canada. The survey collects statistical information on adult and youth court cases involving Criminal Code and other federal statute offences. Data presented for adult criminal courts represent individuals who were 18 years of age or older at the time of the offence. Data presented for youth courts represent individuals who were aged 12 to 17 years at the time of the offence.
Absolute change refers to the simple difference in the indicator over two periods of time (new - old). Relative change (percentage change) refers to the change as a percentage of the value of the indicator in the earlier period (((new − old) ÷old;) ×100). It is advised to use measures of relative change when working with larger datasets and quantities in order to provide a more precise description of how the data has changed over a period of time. However, when working with smaller datasets and sample sizes, the use of measures of absolute change is recommended in order to avoid overstating changes within a period of time.

More Info/PermalinkThe International Labour Migration Statistics (ILMS) Database in ASEAN has been published annually since December 2014 as a special collection on the ILO’s central database, ILOSTAT, as well as through the AP-Migration web-portal. In validating, annotating and gathering together the information from the relevant surveys and administrative records produced in the ASEAN Member States (Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, The Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Viet Nam), ILMS Database in ASEAN fills an important knowledge gap for national and regional policy-makers and for the broader research community.
The ILMS database was initially created in 1998 by ILOSTAT, EUROSTAT, UNSD and UNECE, and regularly updated to include data from 94 countries until 2006. The ILO’s ASEAN TRIANGLE reinvigorated the ILMS database for ASEAN in 2012 and has since then continuously highlighted the strategic importance of labour migration statistics in the region and beyond.
In July 2018, ILO Statistical Department’s (STATISTICS) decided to restart collection of ILMS at global level. Reinvigoration of the ILMS database at global level is important both for SDG monitoring, national planning, and global evidence base on labour migration. Statistics from official sources, mainly labour force surveys, censuses and administrative datasets, are collected on International Labour Migration Questionnaires (ILMQ) developed by the ILO.

Data in this interactive tool are also available in the following CODR tables: 12-10-0011-01; 12-10-0175-01; 12-10-0163-01; 12-10-0168-01; and 12-10-0144-01.
The North American Product Classification System (NAPCS) is used to publish international merchandise trade data on a Balance of Payment basis (BOP). The product information in this data visualisation is available at the product "section" and product "group" levels of the NAPCS classification. Some of the section names have been abbreviated to help with the usability of the tool.
The list of 27 principal trading partners (PTPs) is based on their annual share of total merchandise trade – imports and exports – with Canada in 2012. BOP data are derived from customs data by making adjustments for factors such as valuation, coverage, timing and residency. These adjustments are made to conform to the concepts and definitions of the Canadian System of Macroeconomic Accounts.
Unless otherwise stated, data in this data visualisation tool are on a BOP basis and are seasonally adjusted. Reference to prices in the summary and in the price and volume indices pages are based on Paasche (current-weighted) price indexes (2017=100). The volume index is calculated using the Laspeyres formula (2017=100).
Trade data are revised on an ongoing basis for each month of the current year. Revisions to the previous reference year are published with the release of January, February, March and April data. Revisions to both years prior to the previous year are published with the release of October reference month data.
With the addition of the services section on June 8, 2021, the title of this product has been changed to International trade monthly interactive dashboard to better represent the data contained within the visualization.
