Canadian manufacturing sales rebounded from a poor showing
in August, rising 2.1 per cent in September to $53 billion. The increase in
sales was the eighth gain in the past nine months and was primarily the result
of higher sales of transportation equipment.
In BC, where manufacturing employs over 160,000 people, manufacturing
sales were up 1.9 cent on a monthly basis, and were 9 per cent higher
year-over-year. Through the first nine
months of the year, manufacturing sales are close to 7 per cent higher than
last year.
