description: Notes: Summary of changes over time 2011: This release of the provincial and territorial economic accounts incorporates revisions back to 2007, as part of the ongoing historical revisions, which are much broader in scope than the regular revisions undertaken on an annual basis. These historical revisions are reserved for incorporating updated international national accounting standards, as well as conceptual, classification, presentational and major statistical changes. Revisions back to 1981 will be released in 2013. The revisions are consistent with those incorporated in the Canadian economic accounts, published on October 1, 2012. This release also incorporates the new provincial and territorial input-output accounts benchmarks for reference year 2009. 2008: This is the last reference period for which preliminary data are released jointly for Gross Domestic Product by Income and Expenditure (aka the Provincial and Territorial Economic Accounts) and for Gross Domestic Product by Industry (SDDS 1303). As part of an initiative to renew the System of National Accounts, the release schedules will be modified over the next few years. The reasons for the changes, and the release schedule, are available at the following link: Latest Developments in the Canadian Economic Accounts: Renewing the Canadian System of National Accounts. The data for Gross Domestic Product by Income and Expenditure for 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 will be released respectively in November 2010, 2011, 2012 and in May 2013. 2002: Conceptual changes - A number of changes related to Licenses and Registration, Farm Inventories, Land Transfer Taxes, Spectrum Charges and Trade have been incorporated into the Provincial Economic Accounts. These changes have been incorporated into the affected series back to 1981 and are consistent with those changes which have been incorporated in the National Income and Expenditure Accounts since May 31, 2002. These changes are described in an article "The 2002 Revisions of the National Economic and Financial Accounts"; see "Latest developments in the Canadian economic accounts", Statistics Canada, Catalogue no. 13-605-XIE, free. The side bar menu of that electronic publication includes: chronology of events, conceptual changes, classifications changes, and data revisions. Estimation - The Provincial Economic Accounts will adopt the Fisher Volume Index, chained annually, as the official measure of real expenditure-based GDP. This change will be incorporated into the affected series back to 1981.;
