Travel Survey of Residents of Canada, 2017: Person File, January

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 quantify the volume, the characteristics and the economic impact of domestic travel. For the system of national accounts, TSRC measures the size of domestic travel in Canada from the demand side. Since the beginning of 2005, the Travel Survey of Residents of Canada (TSRC) has been conducted to measure domestic travel in Canada. It replaces the Canadian Travel Survey (CTS). Featuring several definitional changes and a new questionnaire, this survey provides estimates of domestic travel that are more in line with the international guidelines recommended by the World Tourism Organization (WTO) and the United Nations Statistical Commission. In 2011, TSRC underwent a redesign. The Travel Survey of Residents of Canada is sponsored by Statistics Canada, the Canadian Tourism Commission, and the provincial governments. 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 household-nights spent in each location visited in Canada, in total and by type of accommodation used, use of travel packages and associated spending and source of payment (household, government, private employer), demographics of adults that took or did not take trips, and travel party composition. The main users of the TSRC data are Statistics Canada, the Canadian Tourism Commission, the provinces, and tourism boards. Other users include the media, businesses, consultants and researchers.

加拿大居民旅行调查（Travel Survey of Residents of Canada, TSRC）是衡量加拿大旅游业规模与发展态势的核心数据来源。该调查旨在量化加拿大国内旅行的规模、特征与经济影响。在国民账户体系框架下，TSRC从需求端衡量加拿大国内旅行的整体规模。
自2005年起，加拿大居民旅行调查（TSRC）正式开展，用于测算加拿大国内旅行情况，并取代了原有的加拿大旅行调查（Canadian Travel Survey, CTS）。本次调查在定义框架与问卷设计上均进行了优化调整，所生成的国内旅行测算结果更符合世界旅游组织（World Tourism Organization, WTO）与联合国统计委员会（United Nations Statistical Commission）制定的国际规范。
2011年，TSRC完成了体系重构。
加拿大居民旅行调查由加拿大统计局（Statistics Canada）、加拿大旅游委员会（Canadian Tourism Commission）以及各省级政府联合资助，其核心职能依旧是从需求端测算加拿大国内旅行的规模。
本次调查的目标包括：一是按旅行出发地、目的地、时长、住宿类型、出行目的、交通方式等维度，提供加拿大居民的旅行次数与消费支出相关信息；二是统计旅行参与率，并刻画旅行者与非旅行者的社会人口学特征。
基于调查测算结果，可在全国、省级及旅游区域层面（精度存在一定差异）开展季度分析，分析维度涵盖：加拿大居民赴加拿大境内的当日往返与过夜旅行总规模、加拿大境内当日往返与过夜到访人次；旅行主要目的/行程核心活动；加拿大居民在加拿大境内开展的当日往返与过夜旅行的总支出及按支出类别划分的消费情况；行程中使用的主要/其他交通方式；人次数、家庭到访次数；加拿大境内各到访地的总支出及按支出类别划分的消费情况；加拿大境内各到访地的总人夜数与家庭夜数，以及按住宿类型划分的对应数据；旅行套餐使用情况、相关消费及支付来源（家庭、政府、私营雇主）；参与/未参与旅行的成年人社会人口学特征；旅行团组成结构。
TSRC数据的主要使用者包括加拿大统计局、加拿大旅游委员会、各省级政府及旅游管理机构，其他使用者涵盖媒体、企业、咨询机构与研究人员。
