Christmas ....by the numbers

Statistics Canada likes to have fun with numbers and releases topical/seasonal statistics of interest (Back to School, Valentine's Day, National Aboriginal Day, etc.)

For some fun Christmas numbers see:

• Christmas by the numbers 2015

According to the “Eggnog and whipping cream” numbers, December sees the highest sales of whipping cream AND July the next highest…I can just imagine the bowls of sliced strawberries with whipping cream.

• Christmas trees by the Numbers (2016)  

I was surprised at how far down the list of exporting provinces British Columbia was. And I was really surprised at some of the countries that Canada exports to: Cayman Island, UAE, Thailand, Russian Federation, etc.
