How many automotive batteries (lead-acid batteries) have been sold
annually in British Columbia, Canada from 1995 to 2005? Partial
answers may be of interest, e.g. results for a given year(s) and/or
for the whole country. In this case please double check price with me.

Please note: I am not interested in any extrapolation based on figures
published on the BC Ministry of the Environment website
http://www.env.gov.bc.ca/epd/epdpa/ips/batt/index.html.

I have also thoroughly searched BC Stats http://www.bcstats.gov.bc.ca/
and Statcan (Strategis)
http://strategis.ic.gc.ca/sc_mrkti/tdst/engdoc/tr_homep.html  None of
them have reported this information.

The closest I got from this answer so far was the number of licensed
vehicles in the province
