  • Canadian Union-Nonunion Wage Differentials

    E Kenneth Grant, Robert Swidinsky et al.ARTICLEIndustrial and Labor Relations…1987Cited by: 3References: 16

    Using extensive Canadian longitudinal data from the years 1969-71, the authors estimate union-nonunion wage differentials of 12-14 percent for 1969 and 13-16 percent for 1970. These estimates are not adjusted for selectivity because three different tests to identify selectivity yield no evidence of selectivity bias. The authors argue that although testing for selectivity is often essential, selectivity adjustments have resulted in greatly inflate…

  • Financing Confederation: Transfers and Migration

    John VanderkampARTICLECanadian Public Policy1982References: 1

    A final issue relating to the above is the fact that the theory is developed for a hypothetical two-region economy, while in reality there are ten separate provinces of widely diverging fiscal capacities. Residents of the 'have' provinces are receiving an income greater than their marginal product. To avoid distortion then, residents of all provinces must be brought to the same level. This suggests that the standards for equalization should not b…

  • Migration Flows, Their Determinants and the Effects of Return Migration

    John VanderkampARTICLEJournal of Political Economy1971Cited by: 40

    This paper examines at the theoretical level the distinction among new, return, and autonomous migration flows. This helps to explain the relative magnitudes of observed gross and net migration flows. Return migration has the effect of linking gross migration flows in opposite directions. The income-distance trade-off is strongly affected by the state of the labor market. Thus, not only is the overall level of migration reduced under depressed co…

  • The Phillips Relation: A Theoretical Explanation-A Comment

    John VanderkampARTICLEEconomica1968

    The main point of the recent paper by Bernard Corry and David Laidlerl is that the shape of the Phillips curve depends on an arbitrary assumption regarding the level of frictional unemployment. Thus Lipsey's derivation of the negative slope of the Phillips curve under conditions of rising wages (that is positive excess demand for labour) amounts to no more than the assertion that of the two factors that can affect the level of frictional unemploy…

  • Wage and Price Level Determination: An Empirical Model for Canada

    John VanderkampARTICLEEconomica1966

    The behaviour of the price level has received considerable empirical interest in the last seven or eight years. This is in marked contrast with the discussion which took place prior to the event of the Phillips curve, when the arguments were largely conducted in a priori terms perhaps spiced with some occasional statistics. The empirical work has been mostly related to the United Kingdom and the United States; little research had been undertaken …
