This report examines the short-and medium-term economic and profitability outlook for Canada’s Non-Residential Construction Industry.
Document Highlights
Industrial Capacity—Many industries, especially in the manufacturing sector, have seen their export growth prospects improve thanks to stronger industrial production and business investment south of the border and to the weak Canadian dollar.

Retailers Struggle—With several retail chains going out of business or restructuring, the resulting store closures are leaving plenty of commercial space unused. It will take time to absorb this excess capacity.
