The trend in housing starts was 219,447 units in August 2017, compared to 217,339 units in July 2017, according to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC). This trend measure is a six-month moving average of the monthly seasonally adjusted annual rates (SAAR) of housing starts.

"Canada's trend in housing starts was above the 200,000 unit mark for the eighth consecutive month," said Bob Dugan, CMHC's chief economist. "Demand for new homes remains strong, consistent with consumer confidence which reached its highest level in ten years."

In July 2017 the seasonally adjusted industrial production index increased by 0.1% compared with the previous month. The percentage change of the average of the last three months with respect to the previous three months was +1.4.

The calendar adjusted industrial production index increased by 4.4% compared with July 2016 (calendar working days in July 2017 being the same as in July 2016); in the period January-July 2017 the percentage change was +2.6 compared with the same period of 2016.

The unadjusted industrial production index increased by 4.4% compared with July 2016.
