TORONTO— Business bankruptcies have dropped to an all-time low in Canada, according to a new report from CIBC World Markets . For most of last year, there were 3,500 bankruptcies—3.4 per every 1,000 businesses. That’s 26 per cent below the previous year’s rate and half the average level over the past two decades.

The CFIB’s Business Barometer Index finished at 68.9 in January, only slightly off December’s level of 69.3. The improvement in small and mid-sized business optimism that unfolded late last year appears to have carried over into 2011.  Although optimism in Ontario ebbed slightly, positive sentiments increased in Quebec and British Columbia. Overall, manufacturing respondents report that: •    46 per cent report their overall state of business is satisfactory •    68 per cent report there will be no change in employment plans in 2011 •    53 per cent said insufficient domestic demand is a major business constraint •    75 per cent said fuel and energy costs are major concerns Businesses cite post-recession highs in the health of inventories, new orders and investment intentions for production machinery and equipment as reasons for optimism.
