Tutorial For Interactive TradeMap Canada
From the site, "The decision to begin exporting, or to expand into new export markets, is not one that can be taken without some serious research into issues such as:

1. Is there a market for my product?
2. What market should I go after?
3. Is this market growing?
4. Who is the competition?
5. Are there any tariff or non-tariff barriers?

The list goes on.

Trademap Canada will have some of these answers for you. This tutorial will help you get these answers, enabling you to analyze the export or import potential for your product." Registration to use the database is required (Free).

"If you live within a mile of a church, you're far less likely to have a car accident than drivers who live more than a mile from a church. But if you live within one mile of a restaurant, you face a significantly greater risk of an accident than most other drivers. Those are among the key findings of a study released...by a leading predictive analytics company -- Quality Planning Corporation -- a firm that helps insurance companies price insurance more accurately and fairly."
