CANADIAN ALBUM FIGURES
|
The Canadian Recording Industry Association (CRIA) certifications are based on the amount of records shipped to stores and record clubs minus returns, meaning if there are many copies of an album on the shelves at retail and record clubs and there is no demand for them, they will be shipped back to the record label and will not be counted in the certification.
