Notes:
For international visitors, spending includes the following categories: transport in Canada (public and local transportation, private transportation), accommodation, food and beverage, recreation and entertainment, retail and others, and international transport on Canadian carriers.

 

The methodology of the International Travel Survey was changed in 2000. Therefore, data prior to 2000 are not comparable to those after 2000.

 

Discrepancies are due to rounding.
