520 | |a"The author argues that in the light of economic theory and empirical evidence, different natural resource endowments per capita are less important as causes and remedies of regional economic disparities than some prominent writers on public policy apparently believe. "Correcting" per capita personal income for regional differences in natural resource "windfalls" explains less than half of the superior income levels of British Columbia and virtually none of the income gap between the Atlantic Region and Ontario. Current methods of pricing British Columbia's forest resource allow natural resource rents to be passed on to other industries and to labour with certain unfortunate consequences for industry structure and unemployment. The author uses regional linear programming models of the forest and mining industries to measure natural resource rents and to measure the economic impacts of the policy changes he is suggesting"--Summary. |
