  16. Deflation Updated accurate commodity data Wholesale price indexes Globalization-induced changes to the structure of multinational firms with operations in Canada Accurately and consistently define, delineate and measure the wholesale industry. Wholesale activities can take place in a variety of areas of the economy (manufacturing sales branches, head-office, logistics, warehousing,, etc.) Consistent industrial classification of production units can be a challenge. For example, the same activities of different firms may be classified in different industries based on each firm’s most-recently profiled book-keeping practices. Avoid volatility in the wholesale statistical series resulting from changes in classification that may not reflect actual changes in economic activity.
