A national cohort study of community belonging and its influence on premature mortality
BACKGROUND: Community belonging, an important constituent of subjective well-being, is an important target for improving population health. Ageing involves transitioning across different social conditions thus, community belonging on health may vary across the life course. Using a nationally representative cohort, this study estimates the life stage-specific impact of community belonging on premature mortality. METHODS: Six cycles of the Canadian…
Social Capital, Trust, and Well-being in the Evaluation of Wealth
This paper combines theory with data \n from different domains to provide an empirical analysis of \n the scale and variability of social capital as wealth. The \n analysis is used to argue, given what has been learned from \n the literature on social capital, that the welfare returns \n to investing in trust could be substantial. Using data from \n 132 nations covered by the Gallup World Poll, the paper \n presents a range of estimates of the we…
International differences in well-being
Well-Being for Public Policy
The case is made for implementing national accounts of well-being to help policy makers and individuals make better decisions. Well-being is defined as people's evaluations of their lives, including concepts such as life satisfaction and happiness, and is similar to the concept of “utility” in economics. Measures of well-being in organizations, states, and nations can provide people with useful information. Importantly, accounts of well-being can…

Mineral Resources in the New International Order
The National Energy Board's 1974-1975 Natural Gas Supply Hearings
In early 1974, the National Energy Board announced hearings 'to Determine the Supply and Deliverability of Canadian Natural Gas in Relation to Reasonably Foreseeable Requirements for Use in Canada and Potential for Export.' Written submissions were requested by September I, 1974, and hearings were later set for Calgary, Toronto, Winnipeg, Vancouver, Ottawa, and Quebec City. The National Energy Board's report on this subject, expected in mid-1975,…
Extractive Resources in the World Economy
Assessing the Dynamic Efficiency of Automatic Stabilizers
The dynamic efficiency of selected stabilizers was measured by simulating three-year world activity and price cycles in a medium-size non-linear model of the Canadian economy (RDX1) and computing the proportion of variance (around control values) eliminated by the operation of the stabilizer(s). Such measures, calculated for several target variables, were compared at different levels of capacity utilization for both cyclical and sustained shocks.…
