Canadian laboratories have performed quite poorly during the current period because of significant volatility. COVID-19 reduced corporate profit and nonresidential construction, constraining downstream demand for laboratory testing and causing revenue to plummet in 2020. Business partially bounced back amid the pandemic recovery, but revenue was partially constrained by low research and development (R&D) expenditure. Over the past few years, interest rates have soared as the Bank of Canada has sought to reduce inflation. This has caused consumer confidence and corporate profit to plunge, causing revenue to turn south again and constraining profit for providers. Increased regulation across several downstream markets has driven laboratory testing demand despite these challenges. For instance, greater environmental concerns have led to more comprehensive air quality standards. Volatile oil prices have fostered major shifts in revenue during the current period. Energy testing, which represents the second-largest revenue segment and encompasses gas analysis and oil sand solutions, initially declined because of decreased exploration and investment resulting from low oil prices during COVID-19. Improving energy prices and the broader economic recovery helped raise demand from this sector, benefiting relevant players. Overall, revenue for laboratory testing companies in Canada is expected to plunge at a CAGR of 3.2% during the current period, reaching $CA2.3 billion in 2024. This includes a 3.5% increase in revenue in that year. Economic growth will bolster Canadian laboratory testing performance during the outlook period. The steady expansion of Canada’s GDP will stimulate the development of new products and their associated laboratory testing needs to ensure safety and quality. Concerns regarding health and safety will remain important to consumers, fuelling the need for more comprehensive regulation, particularly in the oil and gas industry. Overall, revenue for laboratory testing companies in Canada is forecast to expand at a CAGR of 2.4% during the outlook period, reaching $CA2.6 billion in 2029.

Keeping the lights on across industries and geographies, the electrician industry in Canada is a key component of the economy at large. With demand dispersed among many downstream construction markets, industry revenue is expected to have declined at a CAGR of 3.2% to $29.8 billion through the end of 2025, including an expected growth of 2.7% in 2025 alone as along with interest rate cuts and rising consumer confidence. Volatile costs have driven down average industry profit over the last five years. Over the past five years, electricians in Canada have dealt with fluctuating interest rates, and construction materials cost inflation, which has had varying impacts on downstream residential and nonresidential construction markets. At the height of the pandemic, demand from nonresidential construction wavered as economic activity was broadly disrupted. While demand from nonresidential construction returned as the economy reopened, residential demand fell as interest rates rose. While the Bank of Canada began cutting rates in 2024 and have continued to do so into 2025, they are still relatively high and have kept residential construction activity from reaching height seen earlier in the current period. As residential construction consistently accounts for over 60.0% of industry revenue, the electrical industry has yet to reach the heights it saw in 2020. Industry performance is expected to improve in the coming years. The value of nonresidential construction will continue to recover, supporting the industry. As interest rates continue to fall and consumer sentiment improves, demand from residential construction is set to return to growth. Surging immigration will add to the already significant demand for housing. Still, electrical contractors will continue to struggle with high costs (possibly exacerbated by a looming trade war with the US) and labour shortages. Overall, industry revenue is expected to climb at a CAGR of 2.2% to reach $33.3 billion in 2030.
