Sources: Statistics Canada; Public Accounts of Canada; Department of Finance. Estimates are based on an update of the methodology developed in the Department of Finance working paper "Fiscal Policy and the Business Cycle: A New Approach to Identifying the Interaction" (2003), Stephen Murchison and Janine Robbins. In particular, this update incorporates the cyclical impact of commodity prices in the calculation of the cyclical component and a treatment of the Employment Insurance Account that is reflective of the current regime. (1) For some specific years, temporary counter-cyclical fiscal measures (e.g. most temporary measures implemented in response to the 2008-2009 global recession), as well as punctual factors such a one-time gains or expenses (e.g. related to sales tax harmonization, Alberta Flood Costs), are included in the cyclical component of the balance and therefore excluded from the cyclically-adjusted budgetary balance. |
