Abstract

This work is concerned with the empirical relevance of the relationship between interprovincial migration and fiscal structure in Canada. Recent trends in inter-provincial migration are first examined. Next a critical review of a previous study by Thomas J. Courchene is presented and a revised model using the same approach is outlined. Particular attention is paid to the problem of how best to use available aggregate data on fiscal structure in the context of a model of individual migration decisions. The completed model is estimated using tax data the estimates are discussed and some quantitative simulations are presented. (EXCERPT)
