Travel Survey of Residents of Canada, 2008: Visit File, February

The Travel Survey of Residents of Canada (TSRC) is a major source of data used to measure the size and status of Canada's tourism industry. It was developed to mesure the volume, the characteristics and the economic impact of domestic travel. Since the beginning of 2005 this survey replaces the Canada Travel Survey (CTS). It measures the size of domestic travel in Canada from the demand side. The objectives of the survey are to provide information about the volume of trips and expenditures for Canadian residents by trip origin, destination, duration, type of accommodation used, trip reason, mode of travel, etc.; to provide information on travel incidence and to provide the socio-demographic profile of travellers and non-travellers. Estimates allow quarterly analysis at the national, provincial and tourism region level (with varying degrees of precision) on: total volume of same-day and overnight trips taken by the residents of Canada with destinations in Canada same-day and overnight visits in Canada main purpose of the trip/key activities on trip spending on same-day and overnight trips taken in Canada by Canadian residents in total and by category of expenditure modes of transportation (main/other) used on the trip person-visits, household-visits, spending in total and by expense category for each location visited in Canada person- and party-nights spent in each location visited in Canada, in total and by type of accommodation used use of travel packages and associated spending and use of motor coach/other guided tours source of payment (household, government, private employer) demographics of adults that took or did not take trips travel party composition There are three files for this survey - Trip File, Visit File, and Person File.
