*Several aspects of the Statistics Canada Annual Survey of Research and Development in Canadian Industry have been redesigned in 2016, including concepts, methodology, the collection method and the data processing system. The concepts and definitions employed in the collection and dissemination of R&D data are provided in the Frascati Manual 2015: Guidelines for Collecting and Reporting Data on Research and Experimental Development (Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), 2015). According to this definition: "R&D comprises creative and systematic work undertaken in order to increase the stock of knowledge – including knowledge of humankind, culture and society – and to devise new applications of available knowledge" Adapted from Statistics Canada, The State of the Canadian Aerospace Industry 2017 Report, page 19, 2016.
