Do Canadians shop online?
Absolutely. In 2007, Canadians placed almost $12.8 billion worth of orders online, up 61% from 2005. This increase was driven by a larger volume of orders, which rose from 49.4 million in 2005 to 69.9 million in 2007. Furthermore, more than 8.4 million Canadians aged 16 and over made an online purchase in 2007, up from nearly 6.9 million in 2005.* *Statistics Canada, Canadian Internet Use Survey, 2007.
