Can public investment in transport influence densification and land use? Evidence from the tramway of Dijon (France)
Investment in public transport offers alternatives to reduce car dependency as well as many negative externalities associated with solo car usage. Yet, to be fully effective, public transport infrastructure must be able to facilitate economic activities and households’ concentration. By increasing building density around stations and corridors, transport land-use feedback cycle can be engaged. The paper aims to evaluate the existence and extent o…
When transit stops
Public transport can generate positive economic externalities by reducing transportation cost. Evaluating the economic impact of the presence of public transport is challenging, as no one must identify the travel-time savings attributable specifically to its availability. So far, most of the literature dedicated to allocating a value to public transport has been devoted to measure the willingness-to-pay to be located close from station. The paper…
Shades of Green. How does residential development affect urban green cover in the short and medium term
Rapid urbanization represents a major challenge for the preservation of urban canopy and green spaces in many cities. With urban growth, trees fall victim to new residential developments, significantly reducing short-term green cover. In the medium and long term, homeowners can influence the presence of tree cover by landscaping yards or planting trees, but is it enough to invert the trend? This is the question the paper aims to answer by trackin…
From wheels to meals
This study explores the economic impact of bike lanes on local commercial growth in Montreal, focusing on their influence on the number of restaurants (cafés, dining and nightlife establishments). While active transportation infrastructure is often promoted for its health and environmental benefits, its potential to drive economic development remains debated. Using an Event Study Analysis (ESA) framework, this research analyzes the relationship b…
Does taken-for-granted technology challenge firm location theories? A micro-spatial analysis of knowledge-intensive business services (Kibs)
External costs of high-voltage overhead transmission lines
In light of climatic change and global warming, electricity transmission networks need to be developed for the integration of renewable sources. In North America and Europe, to achieve renewable electricity goals, massive investments in electricity transport infrastructure are planned to connect solar and wind generation sites to the grid network. However, local opposition to new installations of high-voltage overhead transmission lines (HVOTLs) …
Yes or Not in My Backyard (Yimby vs. Nimby)? The Impact of New Social Housing Construction on Single-Family House Prices in Quebec City (Canada)
The development of new social housing faces important resistance by local population, a phenomenon knows as the “not in my backyard” movement. One argument from residents to oppose such project is the idea that new construction will negatively impact property values. This is what this paper aims to investigate. The analysis is based on a complete recension of the new social housing projects built between 2000 and 2020 and on single-family house t…

Will you be happy for me? Associations between self-reported, perceived, and observed responses to positive events and sexual well-being in cohabiting couples
Whereas greater levels of intimacy have been shown to promote couples’ sexual well-being, recent theories suggest that satisfying sex is maintained via the capacity to encourage the partner’s individuality, while remaining intimately connected. Responses to capitalization attempts (i.e., the disclosure of a positive personal event) provide an opportunity to strengthen both the couple’s intimacy and each partner’s autonomy. Although responses to c…

The evolution and trajectories of the geography of mergers and acquisitions
This article studies the spatial evolution of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in Canada to investigate the path dependence process of corporate control geography. The analysis is based on network analysis and quadratic assignment procedure (QAP) regression models for transactions of more than C$5 million between 1994 and 2016. The results indicate that the geography of economic decision-making is highly path-dependent, and that Toronto, Montreal, …

Exploring the Causes and Consequences of Regional Income Inequality in Canada
The recent surge in populist movements sweeping many countries has brought into focus the issue of regional inequality. In this article, we develop a panel data set for Canada that includes information on 284 regions observed at 5-year intervals (from 1981 to 2011) and estimate a series of spatial econometric models to study the causes and consequences of regional inequality. Our results draw attention to the fact that the rise in inequality at t…

When Self-Worth Is Tied to One’s Sexual and Romantic Relationship
Le Maup et l’insoluble question de frontière optimale
L’article propose une façon simple de tester la présence du problème d’unité d’aire modifiable sur un ensemble d’indicateurs spatiaux locaux calculés à partir de micro-données d’emplois par établissement dans la province du Québec en 2011. À partir de la localisation des ports du Québec, l’application construit les indicateurs sélectionnés en effectuant un ensemble de délimitations spatiales avec des cercles de rayons variant de 250 à 10 000 mètr…
Anticipation and post-construction impact of a metro extension on residential values
À propos du rôle de la taille dans la croissance urbaine
Faits saillants L'incidence de la taille initiale de la ville sur la croissance se manifeste de façon indirecte par l'intermédiaire d'autres variables. La décroissance / croissance est principalement associée, respectivement, au degré de spécialisation dans les industries de première transformation et au taux d'emploi, un indicateur de la vigueur du marché du travail. Le rôle (positif) du capital humain dans la croissance joue surtout pour les gr…
The view from a lucky country
The article assesses the impact of the Great Recession on 83 Canadian regions, focussing on the unemployment rate as principal indicator. A dual empirical approach is used: examination of regional unemployment rate variations before, during and after the recession using a labour supply and demand framework; examination of the determinants of regional variations via a spatial econometric model. The findings reveal that Canadian labour markets reac…
Resilience Revisited
Dubé J. and Polèse M. Resilience revisited: assessing the impact of the 2007–09 recession on 83 Canadian regions with accompanying thoughts on an elusive concept, Regional Studies. Viewing the 2007–09 recession as an exogenous shock, the paper proposes an assessment of the ‘resilience’ of 83 Canadian regions using four standard metrics: population, employment, unemployment and employment rates. For each metric, regions are evaluated on three posi…

A spatio‐temporal measure of spatial dependence
Les découpages administratifs sont-ils pertinents en analyse immobilière
La ville de Québec offre une mosaïque d'espaces de vie qui correspondent à autant de sous-marchés résidentiels. Quatre cent ans d'histoire ont produit une agglomération diversifiée, depuis sa fondation en 1608. Toutefois, on peut remettre en question la pertinence des découpages administratifs pour réaliser des études urbaines. S'il n'y a pas de découpage spatial idéal, des approches permettent néanmoins de délimiter des ensembles géographiques r…
