Statistics Canada produces estimates of the value of unpaid household work. These estimates are used to identify the productive activities that are not covered in the current estimate of gross national product. Statistics Canada last measured the value of unpaid household work in 1995, for the reference year 1992. This program does not have ongoing funding, and work is conducted when its measurement is considered a priority and resources are identified. If Madam Chair allows me, I could elaborate a bit more on what this entails.
