https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2023/12/staff-analytical-note-2023-17/
We assess the complex macroeconomic implications of Canada’s recent population increases. We find that newcomers significantly boost the non-inflationary, potential growth of the economy, but existing imbalances in the housing sector may be exacerbated. Greater housing supply is needed to complement the long-term economic benefits of population growth.2023-12-07T12:35:52+00:00enAssessing the effects of higher immigration on the Canadian economy and inflation2023-12-07Canada’s regional economies

We analyze factors that may explain consistent answers to questions about inflation expectations in the Canadian Survey of Consumer Expectations. We also compare the inflation forecasts of consumers with consistent responses with those of professional forecasters.2023-03-31T13:09:50+00:00enWhat Consistent Responses on Future Inflation by Consumers Can Reveal2023-03-31Central bank researchInflation and pricesStaff Discussion Paper 2023-7https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/sdp2023-7.pdfStaff Discussion Paper 2023-7Sarah MillerPatrick SabourinMarch 2023DD8D80D84EE3E31Has wage setting changed in Canada? Evidence from the pre-pandemic 2020 Wage-Setting Survey
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2022/08/staff-analytical-note-2022-10/
Just before the pandemic began, the Bank of Canada conducted the 2020 Wage-Setting Survey. The goal was to explore the unusual trend of subdued wage growth in 2018 and 2019 despite a tightening in the labour market. Although this wage puzzle was beginning to resolve at the time of the survey, results highlight changes in several factors that may have important impacts on wage dynamics.2022-08-19T12:00:30+00:00enHas wage setting changed in Canada?

https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2021/02/staff-analytical-note-2021-1/
We construct an index that systematically measures and tracks the stringency of government policy responses to the COVID-19 pandemic across Canadian provinces. Researchers can use this stringency index to analyze how the pandemic is affecting the economy.2021-02-26T14:00:34+00:00enThe Bank of Canada COVID‑19 stringency index: measuring policy response across provinces2021-02-26What’s Up with Unit Non-Response in the Bank of Canada’s Business Outlook Survey?

Since 1997, the Bank of Canada’s regional offices have been conducting the Business Outlook Survey (BOS), a quarterly survey of business conditions. Survey responses are gathered through face-to-face, confidential consultations with a sample of private sector firms representative of the various sectors, firm sizes and regions across Canada.2017-09-27T11:42:51+00:00enWhat’s Up with Unit Non-Response in the Bank of Canada’s Business Outlook Survey?

https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/boc-review-spring13-amirault.pdf
Understanding the factors that determine the migration of labour between regions is crucial for assessing the economy’s response to macroeconomic shocks and identifying policies that will encourage an efficient reallocation of labour. By examining the determinants of migration within Canada from 1991 to 2006, this article provides evidence that regional differences in employment rates and household incomes tend to increase labour migration, and that provincial borders and language differences are barriers to migration.2013-05-16T07:38:07+00:00enExplaining Canada’s Regional Migration Patterns2013-05-16What Drags and Drives Mobility: Explaining Canada’s Aggregate Migration Patterns
