The “Ottawa syndrome”: The localization of federal public servants in Canada
This article examines the distribution of federal public servants across Canada and asks the question “Does the distribution of the federal public service across Canada matter in the formulation of federal policies related to municipalities?” The article takes a two‐part approach. First, it examines the history of and commentary on decentralization and de‐concentration of the federal public service. It then proceeds to examine the data on the dis…

This study develops a model to measure the impact of police expenditure on crime rates across cities. It specifically allows for the two‐way relationship between police and crime. Other things being equal, cities with more police per capita should have lower crime rates, if police reduce crime. Simultaneously, the higher the crime rate, the greater the public demand for police. In its final formations, the model contains two identifiable equation…
