Migration and a small long-term econometric model of Alberta / by Thomas T. Schweitzer.: EC22-3/1982-221E-PDF

"In the last 15 years Alberta has achieved remarkably strong economic growth and low unemployment. Moreover, since 1973 the province has received very large government revenues from natural resources. One consequence of these events has been immigration at a very high rate in recent years. The main purpose of this study is to find out how much more immigration can be expected.
