An econometric examination of the trend unemployment rate in Canada / by Denis Côté and Doug Hostland. : FB3-2/96-7E

This paper attempts to identify the trend unemployment rate, an empirical concept, using cointegration theory. The authors examine whether there is a cointegrating relationship between the observed unemployment rate and various structural factors, focusing neither on the non-accelerating-inflation rate of unemployment (NAIRU), nor on the natural rate of unemployment, but rather on the trend unemployment rate which they define in terms of cointergration.--Abstract
