Abstract
ABSTRACT This article studies the spatial evolution of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in Canada to investigate the path dependence process of corporate control geography. The analysis is based on network analysis and quadratic assignment procedure (QAP) regression models for transactions of more than C$5 million between 1994 and 2016. The results indicate that the geography of economic decision-making is highly path-dependent, and that Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, and Calgary are the main destinations of M&As. However, Winnipeg and Guelph have emerged as new power centers.
