The Canadian productivity accounts : interpretation and analytical uses / by René Durand.: CS15-602/67E-PDF

"This article is the second of a series dealing with the multifactor productivity accounts of Statistics Canada. The first article presented an overall concrete description of the accounts and the various indices with graphics illustrating the major results achieved by the Canadian economy. This second article is more abstract and attempts to go deeper into the notion of productivity tying it with the notions of welfare, competitiveness and growth. We attempt in this manner to provide an overall analytical framework for a better interpretation of the meaning of multifactor productivity in the wider contexts of the analyses of competitiveness and welfare. We finally use this analytical framework to assess the popular views on competitiveness and its indicators"--Abstract.
