Provincial differences in labour force participation / by Sylvia Ostry.: CS99-551/1968E-PDF
"At any given time there are differences in labour force participation across this country: the all-Canada participation rate conceals a good deal of interprovincial variation. These differences in provincial labour force membership, in part, reflect differences in the economic and social environment of the provinces which influence the labour force behaviour of the population and, in part, are the consequence of differing population compositions among the provinces. The purpose of the present study is simply to expose the extent of geographic (interprovincial) variation in labour force participation in Canada in 1961 and to trace some of the historical changes that have occurred in respect to this phenomenon. Data for Yukon Territory and the Northwest Territories are excluded throughout."--Intro.
