As the country’s number one service export, tourism is larger than agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting combined. In every region of the country, tourism creates jobs and opportunities for Canada's middle class. Canada’s visitor economy has been performing well over the last few years, including in 2017 when it welcomed a record-breaking 20.8 million international visitors spending $21.3 billion. The Government of Canada has committed to growing Canada’s visitor economy under Canada’s Tourism Vision it launched in 2017. Under this initiative, our appropriated funding has stabilized, allowing us to continue our leisure marketing efforts in the US, diversify our impact in other markets and plan with certainty. We have also been working with our industry partners like never before, bringing marketing alignment and how we co-invest together to new heights. We remain steadfast on our strategy to drive demand for Canada among high-spending international travellers. While the US is still our largest source market, our balanced portfolio approach has proven successful in reducing Canada’s reliance on this market.

Introduction The Canadian Tourism Commission (CTC) began conducting the annual Global Tourism Watch (GTW) program in 2007. The primary purpose of this research program is to expand the base of consumer-based intelligence in 12 key markets. The study approach has changed slightly for 2012 and 2013, the sixth and seventh years of the program, with the GTW being conducted in approximately one half of the markets in one year and the other half in the next. This new cycle will allow the CTC and its partners to maintain an up to date pulse on all key markets, while, at the same time, focusing on fewer individual countries in any given year creating some cost efficiencies. Eight markets were included for 2012: Canada, the US, the UK, Germany, Australia, China, South Korea, and Brazil. In 2013, the study will be conducted in six countries - Japan,

Introduction Destination Canada (formerly the Canadian Tourism Commission) began conducting the annual Global Tourism Watch (GTW) program in 2007. The primary purpose of this research program is to expand the base of consumer-based intelligence in twelve core markets around the world1. The overall objectives of the GTW study are to: 1. Monitor awareness, travel intentions, and other key market indicators for Canada and the regions; 2. Assess perceptions of Canada and track brand performance against the competitive set over time; 3. Identify the general experiences sought by travellers, assess Canada’s competitive positioning on key products and identify growth opportunities; 4. Identify motivators and barriers for travel to Canada; and, 5. Explore the role of advocacy in the tourism context. In response to a rapidly changing travel marketplace, Destination Canada and TNS worked together to substantially revise and update the questionnaire prior to the 2014 fieldwork. This was done to better reflect current travel realities and to gather more in-depth information on Canada’s competitors in each market. The new GTW data permits direct comparison of Canada to those competitor countries unique to each market.
