This book was released on 1998 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper attempts to quantify the contribution of observed changes in Canada's unemployment insurance (UI) system to the increased unemployment rate observed in the late 1970s and 1980s. The study uses a calibrated general equilibrium model of the Canadian economy which combines the standard representative agent growth model with a matching model of the labour market. Alternative explanations are considered for the higher unemployment rate, and the relative importance of changes in the UI system is evaluated. In particular, the paper studies the role of layoff costs and distortionary taxes. To put the effects of policy variables in perspective, the effects of the slowdown in total factor productivity growth are examined.

Download or read book The Canadian Unemployment Rate with and Without Alberta s Boom written by Ronald D. Kneebone and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past two decades there has occurred a shift in economic power from central Canada to other parts of the country. Saskatchewan and Newfoundland and Labrador have both claimed a noticeably larger share of Canada's GDP since 1995 but easily the largest shift of economic output has been to Alberta. This adjustment in the Canadian economy is most easily observed in the large migration between provinces of Canadians seeking employment. Data from Statistics Canada's Labour Force Survey shows that over the period 1995-2014 Alberta has maintained an average annual rate of growth in employment of 2.50 per cent. This is well above the 1.44 percentage rate of employment growth in second-place Ontario and double the average rate of growth in neighbouring British Columbia. This begs the question: What would Canada's unemployment rate be today if Alberta's job creation boom hadn't happened? Since the national jobless rate is a weighted average of the provincial figures, getting an answer is straightforward. Assume Alberta's employment growth was no higher than Ontario's over the same period and the impact on Canada's unemployment rate is startling. By August 2014, Canada's unemployment would have been 9.39 per cent -- 2.23 percentage points higher than the real figure of 7.16 per cent -- and the Alberta economy would have created 411,000 fewer jobs; jobs which typically pay $200 to $300 per week more than jobs in Ontario and Quebec. This gloomy scenario means that Canada's present unemployment rate would be 2.5 percentage points higher than it was in mid-2000, and 411,000 Canadians, along with their dependents, would be clearly much worse off were it not for the boom in Alberta. Obviously this simple experiment can't capture the situation's full economic complexity. Would some of those jobs have cropped up in other provinces? Stubbornly lacklustre growth could very well have forced governments and the Bank of Canada to adopt desperate measures; it could also have damaged postrecession recovery by increasing the federal budget deficit and limiting the Bank's room to manoeuvre. While admittedly simple, this exercise highlights how reliant is Canada's international reputation for economic strength and fiscal parsimony on Alberta's prolonged economic boom.
