This paper attempts to identify the trend unemployment rate, an empirical concept, using cointegration theory. The authors examine whether there is a cointegrating relationship between the observed unemployment rate and various structural factors, focussing neither on the non-accelerating-inflation rate of unemployment (NAIRU) nor on the natural rate of unemployment, but rather on the trend unemployment rate, which they define in terms of cointegration.1996-05-01T15:34:55+00:00enAn Econometric Examination of the Trend Unemployment Rate in Canada1996-05-01Labour marketsWorking Paper 1996-7 https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/wp96-7.pdfAn Econometric Examination of the Trend Unemployment Rate in CanadaDenise CôtéDoug HostlandMay 1996EE2E24Changes in the Inflation Process in Canada: Evidence and Implications

The analysis considers 46 monetary measures, about half of which constitute conventional summation aggregates, while the remainder are superlative indices of monetary services based on the Fisher Ideal formula.
