Commerce International, Le Commerce Interprovincial Et la Croissance Des Provinces Canadiennes
Author: Serge Coulombe
Publisher: Canadian Museum of Civilization/Musee Canadien Des Civilisations
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 106
Book Description
This paper provides an empirical analysis of the comparative evolution of interprovincial & international trade and their effects on regional growth for the Canadian provinces since 1981. It first establishes the trend in the relationship between the ratios of interprovincial & international trade to gross domestic product, revealing a sharp break that occurred around 1991. The analysis casts doubt on the pure diversion model often used in trade modelling. The second part uses a conditional convergence-growth model to estimate the respective long-run effects of interprovincial & international trade on Canadian regional economies, specifically in relation to productivity, relative gross domestic product per capita, and job creation. The final chapter discusses implications of the results for regional economies & economic policy issues.

Lien Entre L'innovation Et la Productivité Dans Les Industries Manufacturières
Author: Wulong Gu
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Industrial productivity
Languages : en
Pages : 76
Book Description
This paper argues that the lack of evidence for a strong link between innovation & productivity in Canada is due to incomplete measures of innovation. The authors first construct a comprehensive measure of innovation that models innovation as an unobservable latent variable that underlies four indicators: research & development propensity, measured as a percentage of output; patents per worker; technology adoption, measured as real investment in machinery & equipment; and skill intensity, measured as the employment share of workers with a university education. The authors then examine the relationship between innovation & productivity in 14 Canadian manufacturing industries over 1980-1997 using the new measure. The results also show that the length of time it takes for innovation to have a positive & significant impact on productivity differs across industries.

Book Description
"The World Investment Report 2018 provides analysis of the interaction between new industrial policies and investment policies. It provides an overview of industrial policy models - based on an inventory of industrial policies adopted by more than 100 countries over the last decade - and the role of investment policies within each model. The Report illustrates how investment policy instruments are used differently across various models and suggests ways to improve the impact of industrial policy through more effective and efficient investment policies. Finally, the Report offers recommendations to update existing investment policy instruments, including investment incentives, special economic zones, investment facilitation and foreign investment screening mechanisms."--Provided by publisher.

Looking to the 21st Century - Infrastructure Investments for Economic Growth and for the Welfare and Well-being of Canadians
Author: Chris DeBresson
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : fr
Pages : 204
Book Description
This paper focuses on identifying promising long-term infrastructure investment opportunities. The authors highlight important long-term trends. These include: the increasing importance of knowledge-based learning activities; the more modest pace of economic growth in Canada & other advanced industrial economies; the emergence of Asia as the new centre of world economic growth; & the worsening of global environmental problems. On the basis of these trends the authors develop a list of promising infrastructure projects centred on 4 objectives: increase Canada's participation in the global learning economy (investment in pre-school learning, secondary school performance, & Internet tools & applications); build trust between economic actors through local institutions which would evaluate major projects & make the results available to affected communities; improve the quality of life & the environment (promoting use of electric vehicles, introducing urban recycling programs); reposition Canada in the world economy by establishing multidisciplinary centres of excellence in research on global economic & social issues.
