Summary

June 2011 -- We have changed the geo code for the province of "Newfoundland and Labrador" from ICAN_NF to ICAN_NL (40 series affected).

Detail

In 2002, the official code for the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador changed from "NF" to "NL," and accordingly we changed our Data Buffet geography code from ICAN_NF to ICAN_NL. In such cases we maintain series with dual names ("aliases") for a transitional period. That period has now expired and the following 40 series must be retrieved using the new geo code. For example:

LWE21AM.ICAN_NF - Now elicits "series not found" error.
LWE21AM.ICAN_NL - Mnemonic henceforth.

Please make changes to your Data Buffet baskets as necessary.

Affected series are variously denominated in Canadian dollars (CAD) or thousands or millions (Ths., Mil.) thereof, percent (%) or indexes, and may be unadjusted (NSA) or seasonally adjusted (SA).
