Introduction

Purpose

This monthly survey collects data on the activities of all Canadian refineries involved in the production of refined petroleum products and of selected major distributors of these products.

Confidentiality

Statistics Canada is prohibited by law from releasing any information it collects which could identify any person, business, or organization, unless consent has been given by the respondent or as permitted by the Statistics Act. Statistics Canada will use the information from this survey for statistical and research purposes.

This questionnaire should be completed and mailed to Statistics Canada, Operations and Integration Division, JT2-B17, 150 Tunney's Pasture, Ottawa, Ontario, K1A 0T6, or fax it to 1-800-755-5514 in time to be in Ottawa by the 15th of the month following the month under review.

Data-sharing agreements

To reduce respondent burden, Statistics Canada has entered into data-sharing agreements with provincial and territorial statistical agencies and other government organizations, which have agreed to keep the data confidential and use them only for statistical purposes. Statistics Canada will only share data from this survey with those organizations that have demonstrated a requirement to use the data.

Section 11 of the Statistics Act provides for the sharing of information with provincial and territorial statistical agencies that meet certain conditions. These agencies must have the legislative authority to collect the same information, on a mandatory basis, and the legislation must provide substantially the same provisions for confidentiality and penalties for disclosure of confidential information as the Statistics Act. Because these agencies have the legal authority to compel businesses to provide the same information, consent is not requested and businesses may not object to the sharing of the data.

For this survey, there are Section 11 agreements with the provincial and territorial statistical agencies of Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia, and the Yukon.

The shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province or territory.

Section 12 of the Statistics Act provides for the sharing of information with the federal, provincial or territorial government organizations. Under Section 12, you may refuse to share your information with any of these organizations by writing a letter of objection to the Chief Statistician and returning it with the completed questionnaire. Please specify the organizations with which you do not want to share your data.

For this survey, there are Section 12 agreements with the statistical agencies of Prince Edward Island, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut as well as with Newfoundland and Labrador Department of Natural Resources, Ministère de l'énergie et des ressources naturelles du Québec, Manitoba Department of Mineral Resources, Saskatchewan Ministry of the Economy, Alberta Energy, British Columbia Ministry of Natural Gas Development, British Columbia Ministry of Energy and Mines, Natural Resources Canada, Environment Canada and National Energy Board.

For agreements with provincial and territorial government organizations, the shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province or territory.

Note that there is no right of refusal with respect to sharing the data with the Saskatchewan Ministry of the Economy for businesses also required to report under The Oil and Gas Conservation Act and Regulations (Saskatchewan) and The Mineral Resources Act (Saskatchewan).

The Saskatchewan Ministry of the Economy will use the information obtained from these businesses in accordance with the provisions of its Acts and Regulations.

Record linkage

To enhance the data from this survey, Statistics Canada may combine it with information from other surveys or from administrative sources.

Security of emails and faxes

Statistics Canada advises you that there could be a risk of disclosure during the transmission of information by facsimile or e-mail. However, upon receipt, Statistics Canada will provide the guaranteed level of protection afforded to all information collected under the authority of the Statistics Act.

Instructions

SUMMARY OF REPORTING INSTRUCTIONS - See reporting guide for more details.

(a) Transfers - Inter-products: Report the net movement of product into or out of another product within a given province. Net transfers into a product are to be shown on the relevant product page as a positive entry, and net transfers out of a product are to be shown on the other product page as a negative entry. The sum of all products movements should thus equal zero.

(d) and (i) Receipts and Deliveries from/to other reporting companies: Report all exchanges of product with any companies listed on the reverse side of the first page of this schedule. Complete when changes in titles occur for exchanges under sales agreements, loans exchange agreements, etc. On the reverse side of the product pages, please enter the names of the reporting companies involved and the amount exchanged with each.

(e) Receipts from non-reporting companies: Report all receipts of product from any companies whose names do not appear on the "List of Reporting Companies".

(g) and (h) Inventories: Report inventories including those that result from inter-company transactions (see above). As a consequence, if a change in title of a product has occurred (and has been reported), even if the product remains in the tanks of the "delivering" company, this product should nonetheless be reported as inventory of the "receiving" company. The opening inventory should correspond with the closing inventory of the pevious month.

(m) Net Sales in Canada: Report all sales of finished and unfinished products where such sales have taken place. This line is the sum of lines (a) and (b), PLUS lines (d) to (g), LESS line (c), LESS lines (h) to (l).
