OTTAWA (Reuters) – Canadian factory sales most likely rose 0.7% in February from January, largely due to increases in the petroleum and coal subsector, Statistics Canada said in a flash estimate on Monday.
The estimate was calculated based on a weighted response rate of 64.8%. The average weighted response rate for the survey over the previous 12 months has been 94.3%.
