Bankruptcy Statistics

The statistics database contains over ten years of data for consumer and business bankruptcies by province as well as data for business bankruptcies by province and by Standard Industrial Classification. Also, more breadth has been added with the addition of bankruptcies by major urban centres which provides details on filing volumes for all of the census metropolitan areas and census agglomerations in Canada. The major urban centre statistics include statistics for the component census subdivisions of Vancouver, Montreal, Toronto and Hamilton. The statistical charts provide value added statistics to the user. In particular, they provide annual consumer and business bankruptcy rates for each of the urban centres as well as for the census subdivisions of Vancouver, Montreal, Toronto, and Hamilton. The statistical charts also allows you to undertake trend analysis, to compare years and to obtain a country profile.
