2021 Trend Chart Updates

Having closed the books on 2021, we can update some trend charts with the 2021 data.

The following trend charts have been updated to reflect CIPO’s 2021 data.  Each chart can be accessed either by clicking its named tab or by clicking the chart name hyperlinks in this table:
