Data presented in this interactive dashboard are based on counts of active businesses identified in Statistics Canada’s Business Register (BR), primarily compiled from Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) tax records. The dashboard provides a snapshot of the industrial and geographic distribution of active businesses across rural and small town Canada. The available data are organized according to the 2017 or 2022 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) and adhere to Statistics Canada’s 2021 Standard Geographical Classification (SGC).

Data have been standardized in the Statistical Data and Metadata eXchange (SDMX) format and their metadata have been organized to allow for efficient data linkage. Data will be regularly updated and expanded where possible.
