Package includes the complete provincial data series on key economic indicators, construction investment, and labour market conditions for the years 2006–2030 (not all series have data for all years) plus a Construction and Maintenance Looking Forward, An Assessment of Construction Labour Markets from 2021–2030 PowerPoint presentation summarizing the labour market conditions as released in March 2021. Data includes:

• Geography – All provinces and national sum
• Labour Market – General overview (annual average and peak series by trade and occupation: labour force, employment (total industry, construction activity, maintenance activity), excess supply, excess supply rate, normal excess supply rate, labour force average age, labour force change (total industry, retirements, net mobility, mortality, new entrants)
• Labour Supply – Labour force changes by trade and occupation: retirements, mortality, new entrants, net mobility. Net mobility refers to the movement of labour in and out of the local construction industry labour force. In-mobility captures the movement into the labour force of out-of-province industry workers and/or workers from outside the industry. Many members of this group will move quickly out of the provincial labour force as work declines, referred to as out-mobility.
• Labour Market Rankings – Summarizing labour market conditions by trade and occupation based on industry consultation and the assessment of annual changes in employment growth, unemployment, and net in- or out-mobility requirements. Each labour market is assigned an annual ranking from 1 (very weak market conditions, excess supply) to 5 (shortages forcing recruiting from outside the region).
• Construction Trades and Occupations – 35 trades and occupations: boilermakers; bricklayers; carpenters; concrete finishers; construction millwrights and industrial mechanics; crane operators; drillers and blasters; electrical power line and cable workers; electricians, including industrial and power systems; elevator constructors and mechanics; floor covering installers; gasfitters; glaziers; heavy equipment operators, excluding crane; heavy-duty equipment mechanics; industrial instrument technicians and mechanics; insulators; ironworkers and structural metal fabricators and fitters; painters and decorators, excluding interior decorators; plasterers, drywall installers and finishers, and lathers; plumbers; refrigeration and air conditioning mechanics; residential and commercial installers and servicers; roofers and shinglers; sheet metal workers; steamfitters, pipefitters and sprinkler system installers; tilesetters; trades helpers and labourers; truck drivers; welders and related machine operators; construction estimators; construction managers; contractors and supervisors; homebuilding and renovation managers; other trades and occupations (that are too small to report on an individual basis)
• Construction Investment, Residential – Construction and maintenance expenditures, construction expenditures (total, new housing, housing renovation), residential maintenance and repairs expenditures, housing starts
• Construction Investment, Non-Residential – Construction and maintenance expenditures, construction expenditures (total; building construction expenditures: total, industrial, commercial, institutional; engineering construction expenditures: total, highway and bridge, heavy industrial, other engineering), maintenance and repairs construction expenditures (total; non-residential maintenance: heavy industrial; non-residential maintenance: other)
• Key Economic Indicators – Labour force growth (all industries), employment growth (all industries), unemployment rate (all industries), population growth, household formation, real GDP growth, consumer expenditure growth, government capital expenditure growth, government current expenditure growth, business investment growth, consumer price inflation, annual per employee wage growth, 3-month treasury bill rate, Canada-U.S. exchange rate
• Commodity Prices – Agricultural products price inflation, $US; metals and mineral product price inflation, $US; West Texas Intermediate oil price @ Cushing; Henry Hub Natural Gas price
• Market Assessment PowerPoint – By province: summary charts, tables and notes describing the provincial investment outlook, labour requirements, labour supply, labour market rankings and mobility

Construction investment data is available by individual series by province and/or sector (residential and non-residential) for the years 2006–2030. Investment data are in 2012 constant dollars, adjusted by inflation. Constant dollars are used to calculate the real physical change of the values of construction, factoring out growth due to increases in prices.

The provincial PowerPoint presentations are available as part of the Provincial Data Series but can also be purchased separately. The PowerPoint presentations summarize the labour market conditions as released in March 2021, including summary charts, tables, and notes describing the provincial investment outlook, demand requirements, changes in labour supply (retirements, new entrants, net mobility), and market rankings summarizing market conditions by trade and occupation. This downloadable PowerPoint does not include access to the raw data series.

You can select the data you require and BuildForce Canada will mine the data and produce spreadsheets and/or tables and graphs. This will be individually priced based on the data accessed and the staff time required to produce the information. In order to purchase this service, please complete the custom request form.
