Gibrat's Law and the Growth of Canadian Cities
This paper tests for the existence of diseconomies of size for Canadian cities using Gibrat's Law. If diseconomies of size are not present, then the growth rate of cities is shown to contain a unit root. Therefore, testing for Gibrat's Law is equivalent to testing for unit roots commonly found in the time series literature. Our tests indicate that Gibrat's Law cannot be rejected for the seven largest Canadian cities
An Approach to Estimating the Economic Impact of Climatic Change on a Regional Economy
In previous attempts to estimate the economic impact of climatic change on a regional economy, techniques which tend to understate the actual impact of the hypothesized modification on the natural environment have been used. Most of these studies have not simulated a change in production technology in response to an altered climatic regime. Few have incorporated the effect of an induced change in consumption spending as a consequence of different…
Fur Trappers in the Northwest Territories
Commercial fur trapping, once the primary economic activity of the aboriginal inhabitants of the Northwest Territories, now accounts for only a small fraction of the income received by native people. Many adult native males do continue to engage in commercial trapping, nevertheless, though with varying degrees of commitment. A review of the recent literature reveals a wide variety of suggested motivations for this continuing involvement. Through …

Embodied Inputs and the Classification of Basic and Nonbasic Activity
Studies of the economic base of regional economies and their growth, which use techniques that rely only on labor force or final demand data, will overstate the amount of nonbasic activity supported by exports, produce upwardly biased multipliers, and misclassify activities into basic and nonbasic categories. Input-output analysis is used to introduce a technique that avoids these errors. The contribution of a basic activity to a regional economy…
A Utility Analysis of Activity Patterns of Native Males in the Northwest Territories
Jobs, leisure and traditional pursuits
Activity patterns of native people in the Northwest Territories include a complex mixture of employment in the modern economy, full-time or part-time engagement in traditional pursuits, and leisure. This study identifies characteristics of participants in each activity which assist in interpreting the allocation of time among employment in the modern economy, the pursuit of traditional activities, and leisure. Three hypotheses—traditionalist, mod…
Dualism and Development in the Northwest Territories
Non-Metropolitan Population Growth and the Evolution of Rural Service Centres in the Canadian Prairie Region
STABLER J. C. (1987) Non-Metropolitan population growth and the evolution of rural service centres in the Canadian Prairie region, Reg. Studies 21, 43–53. The growth of non-metropolitan population in the Canadian Prairie region during the 1970s did not produce a counterpart revival of the trade centre status of rural communities. Analysis of 1,027 small communities in this region reveals that more than one-half declined in trade centre status bet…
Fiscal viability and the constitutional development of Canada's northern territories
The constitutional development of the Yukon and the Northwest Territories has become a topic which is debated with increasing frequency and by an ever-widening group of participants. Provincial status is seen by many as the logical, ultimate goal. Admission of new provinces to the confederation, previously a rather straightforward process, depends on conditions which the Constitution Act of 1982 has altered. For the first time candidates are now …
Energy and Regional Investment in Canada
Gaslight Follies
The oil discoveries at Prudhoe Bay on Alaska's Arctic coast in 1968 intensified interest in the oil and gas potential of the Canadian Arctic and led to consideration of a means of transporting northern oil and gas to southern markets. Following the energy crisis of the early 1970s, industry and the Canadian federal government began to plan a transportation corridor along the Mackenzie River Valley. Opposition soon developed. Native residents pres…
