Full Description
Originally published in 2005, Social and Labour Market Aspects of North American Linkages is the twelfth title in the series Investment in Canada Research Series, reissued in 2019. This volume examines the benefits of North American economic integration for Canadians' standard of living. The book also looks at the concerns that deeper economic integration may restrict Canada's ability to pursue domestic goals in a number of important areas. To address these issues, Industry Canada and the former Human Resources Development Canada jointly commissioned original research for a Workshop on Social and Labour Market Aspects of North American Linkages. This volume contains the research papers, comments and panel proceedings from the Workshop.
