March 27 (Reuters) – Canadian wholesale trade most likely rose 2.3% in February from January, largely driven by higher sales in the motor vehicle and motor vehicle parts and accessories subsector, Statistics Canada said in a flash estimate on Friday.
The estimate was calculated based on a weighted response rate of 72.0%. The average weighted response rate for the survey over the previous 12 months has been 82.2%.
