Your guide to the Consumer Price Index . : CS62-557/1986E-PDF
"The Consumer Price Index (CPI), whose origins as a statistical series can be traced back to the early 1900's in Canada, has grown in comprehensiveness and detail over the years to keep pace with increases in its uses and applications. Today, it has a direct or indirect effect on nearly all Canadians. In view of the extensive use and interest in the CPI this booklet is written to serve as a general guide to people wanting an introduction to the subject. The guide explains the CPI and describes how it is calculated. It also responds to many of the more frequently asked questions about the CPI. Finally, it provides some direction on how to interpret and use the price index numbers”--Introd., p. 1.
