Canada’s manufacturing sales fell 1.2% month-on-month to C$70.8 billion in November 2025, following a 1.0% drop in October and slightly below market expectations of a 1.1% decline. Fifteen of 21 subsectors posted losses, led by motor vehicles, which slid 15.9% to C$3.8 billion, the lowest level since October 2022, due to ongoing global semiconductor shortages. Motor vehicle parts sales dropped 6.3%, affected by supply chain disruptions. The machinery subsector declined 3.2% to C$4.4 billion, with the steepest falls in agricultural, construction, mining, and general-purpose machinery. In contrast, petroleum and coal product sales rose 6.8% to C$8.2 billion, supported by higher prices, stronger demand, and the end of a refinery maintenance shutdown. Manufacturing sales fell in eight provinces, led by Ontario (-2.0%) and British Columbia (-3.0%), with notable gains in aerospace production in Ontario (+9.2%). On a year-on-year basis, total manufacturing sales decreased 1.1% in November.
