How Canada compares

Of the eight countries with first-half 2026 data in the KEYSTONE. monthly bulletins, Canada ranks seventh on change in value and eighth on change in tonnes. Türkiye and China have no 2026 data yet, so the comparison leaves out two of the largest exporters. The side-by-side view is in Natural stone exports in the first half of 2026: eight countries.
