Limites importantes
Coverage is partial and time-sensitive. Provincial labour-force estimates are monthly and seasonally adjusted; territorial estimates use a three-month moving average and are not directly comparable. Tax eligibility, incentives, project approvals and market access depend on facts not captured here. Verify every decision with the responsible authority and qualified advisers.
