According to The Economist, The Canadian economy is the 13th largest in
the world, with a gross domestic product of more than $1.42 trillion
(measured in US dollars at market exchange rates). In terms of population
and number of businesses, it is roughly one-tenth the size of its southern
neighbour and largest trading partner, the United States. Most of the
country’s 32.9 million people live in a narrow strip (160 km wide) north of
the US border, and are strongly influenced by the U.S. economy and culture.
The newly published FUMSI Report, Canadian Business Research
Resources, offers a convenient introduction to products and resources
in, for and about the region on a variety of important topics,
including industry information, company information, news, statistics,
consumer markets and more.
In addition to guidance on high-quality resources, the report includes
an index to all URLs cited in the report, links to other resources
including industry associations and other materials published by Free
Pint Limited.
This guide provides a starting place for researchers (and business
owners) who want to explore the Canadian business environment or find
out about specific companies, financial markets, or industries in
Canada.
