The year-on-year growth alternates between 2.6% to 2.7%, showing a slow yet steady upward trend in this import category. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this five-year period suggests a consistent increase averaging around 2.5% annually. However, data for 2023, the base year, is not provided, hence its impact cannot be gauged precisely.
Future trends to watch for:

- Increasing demand from the construction sector due to urban development in Canada.
- Potential fluctuations in foreign exchange rates influencing import values.
