[BCMA] Museum Benchmarking?

Hello all--

Does anyone have any suggestions on where I might find some good 
Canadian museum attendance and financial performance data to benchmark 
against? I found information about the StatsCan Industry survey, but it 
only includes totals, not averages. Perhaps the CMA has something? The 
American Alliance of Museums has a useful-looking tool 
(http://www.aam-us.org/resources/assessment-programs/benchmarking), but 
I'd rather not pay for American data if Canadian info is instead available.

In particular, I'm looking for figures relating to things like average 
cost-per-visitor, revenue-per-visitor, attendance averages per type of 
heritage attraction, etc.

Thoughts, suggestions?


Chris.
