1 Tariff item numbers based on the 2012 edition of the Harmonized System (HS) nomenclature.  
2 The count of in -quota imports for butter, cream and dry whey is based on permits issued by Global Affairs Canada (formerly the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade 
and Development) against Canada 's tariff quota commitments. The count of in -quote imports for wheat, barley and their products is based on data from the Canada 
Border Services Agency. These figures may not equal the quantities reported by Statistics Canada, International Trade Divisio n. In-quota imports are tabulated according 
to the unit for the tariff quota (e.g., grain equivalent basis), and not on a product weight basis.  
3 The count of in quota imports for other products is based on permits issued by Global Affairs Canada against Canada 's tariff quota commitments. These figures may 
differ from total imported quantities reported by Statistics Canada, International Trade Division.  
Note:  
(1) CANQ005 : Imports of fluid milk by consumers are not counted. By virtue of General Import Permit #1, which regulates the importation of  dairy products for personal 
use, any resident of Canada may import  fluid milk. The General Import Permit may be invoked an unlimi ted number of times.
