Abstract

COULOMBE S. (2000) New evidence of convergence across Canadian provinces: the role of urbanization, Reg. Studies 34, 713-725. This paper uses the conditional convergence model for explaining the relative evolution of per capita income across the 10 provinces of the Canadian federation between 1950 and 1996. Provincial relative per capita income steady states are determined by the relative rates of urbanization. Empirical results indicate that the provinces have converged at a speed of about 5% per year and, since the mid-1980s, most provinces appeared to be in the neighbourhood of their respective steady state. The analysis also indicates that for the provinces of Alberta and Québec, the convergence process was disturbed in the 1970s by different permanent level shocks to their long - run steady states. COULOMBE S. (2000) De nouvelles preuves de la convergence des provinces au Canada: le rôle de l'urbanisation, Reg. Studies 34, 713-725. Employant le modèle de convergence conditionnelle, cet article cherchè a expliquer l'évolution relative du revenu par têtè a travers les dix provinces au Canada entre 1950 et 1996. A partir des taux d'urbanisation relatifs, on détermine l'état stationnaire du revenu relatif provincial par tête. Les résultats empiriques laissent voir la convergence des provinces à raison de 5 pour cent par an et démontrent que, depuis le milieu des années 1980, la plupart des provinces sont voisines de leur état stationnaire. Quant à l'Alberta et au Québec, l'analyse montre aussi que le processus de convergence a été perturbé dans les années 70 suite aux divers chocs permanents à leur état stationnaire normal à long terme. COULOMBE S. (2000) Neue Anzeichen der Konvergenz in allen kanadischen Provinzen: die Rolle der Verstädterung, Reg. Studies 34, 713-725. Der vorliegende Aufsatz bedient sich des bedingten Konvergenzmodells zur Erklärung der relativen Entwicklung des pro-Kopf Einkommes in allen zehn Provinzen der kanadischen Föderation im Zeitraum 1950-1996. Dauerzustände provinzieller, relativer pro-Kopf Einkommen werden durch die relativen Raten der Verstädterung bestimmt. Empirische Ergebnisse lassen erkennen, daß die Provinzen sich einander mit einer Geschwindigkeit von etwa 5% per Jahr nähern, und die meisten seit Mitte der achtziger Jahre nicht weit von ihrem respektiven Dauerzustand entfernt waren. Die Analyse läßt auch erkennen, daß in den siebziger Jahren der Annäherungsprozeß in den Provinzen Alberta and Quebec verschiedene, ihre langfristigen Dauerzustände treffende, auf gleicher Höhe anhaltende Schläge erlitt.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
