Goods and service sectors structural change and Canadian economic growth, 1967-86 / D.C.A. Curtis and K.S.R. Murthy.: EC12-4/1991-23E-PDF

"There is a great deal of interest, at present, in structural change in industrial economies; notably the expansion of the service-producing sector in terms of output and, more importantly, in terms of employment, relative to other sectors. In this exercise, we look at the experience of the Canadian economy and attempt to explain some of the structural change, during the period 1967-86, by the use of a small macroeconometric model. This model is disaggregated into three sectors: goods, commercial services, and noncommercial services; and on this basis, and in terms of sectoral variables within limits dictated by the availability of sector-specific data in National Income Statistics, it provides a test for analysing the short-run dynamics underlying the long-term structural change"--Abstract, p. xi.
