OTTAWA, Feb 24 (Reuters) - Canadian wholesale trade most
likely rose 3.0% in January from December, largely reflecting
higher sales in the machinery, equipment and supplies subsector,
Statistics Canada said in a flash estimate on Friday.
This estimate was calculated based on a weighted response
rate of 64.2%. The average final response rate for the survey
over the previous 12 months has been 84.7%.
