March 24 (Reuters) - Canadian factory sales most likely fell 0.2% in February from January, largely driven by lower sales in food and the petroleum and coal product subsectors, Statistics Canada said in a flash estimate on Monday.

The estimate was calculated based on a weighted response rate of 69.4%. The average weighted response rate for the survey over the previous 12 months has been 93.5%.
