Statistics Canada says it will delay publishing international trade data because of the government shutdown in the United States.

The agency says it relies on data from the U.S. Census Bureau to track Canadian export volumes, but hasn’t received any of that information since the U.S. government shutdown over a funding impasse in Congress at the start of October.
