Why some modules are greyed out
  • coming soon: this release opens three deep analyses: public finances, assets and debt, taxation
  • removed for now: currency and IMF country series were not tied closely enough to the city; the balance sheet (assets vs debt) stays in Assets and debt
  • removed, named: sovereign wealth funds; no free official API (paid SWF Institute); revisit if a public source appears
  • removed, nommé: les séries routières BM (IS.ROD.*) sont archivées et IRF access is paid; revisit if a public source becomes available again
  • removed, named: duplicate de Telecoms Digital (same indicateurs WB broadband/mobile); merged rather than duplicated

Pont GFSM: Spending

expense + investissement net en NON-FINANCIAL ASSETS. L'investissement net = acquisitions − cessions − CFC. La CFC est déjà dans expense: elle n'est pas ajoutée une seconde fois au total.

  • Expense: not published CAD /res.
  • Acquisitions d'actifs non financiers: not published
  • Cessions: not published
  • CFC (consumption of fixed capital): not published
  • Investissement net: not published
  • Expenditure (GFSM): not published

Pont GFSM not calculated pour cette ville: acquisitions, cessions et CFC ne sont pas joints dans le spec. CCOFOG StatCan exclut la CFC et ne fournit pas les acquisitions d'actifs non financiers. Le concept source reste published under son nom exact.

4. Revenue by source

Taxes, tarifs et besoin de financement. Official amount, population du palier et division écrites avant la colonne /hab. Un revenu fiscal n'est pas une fonction COFOG; l'emprunt n'est pas une recette fiscale.

Incomplete breakdown by function The published breakdown still carries Province and Local sector outside the city: functions not broken out, Municipal spending: functions not broken out. This city's municipal source does not yet publish the breakdown by function. The total is shown; no CCOFOG prorata is invented to split it.
