Abstract: LE QUÉBEC DES BÂTISSEURS The increase in university graduation rates has enriched human capital in Canada and positively impacted the labor market, including the field of entrepreneurship. This chapter explores the relationship between university education and entrepreneurship in Quebec, Ontario, and Canada, using econometric analyses based on data from the Labour Force Survey, the National Household Survey, and the Census of Population from Statistics Canada. The findings show that holding a university degree increases the likelihood of becoming an entrepreneur and enhances entrepreneurs' earnings. LE QUÉBEC DES BÂTISSEURS L’augmentation du taux de diplomation universitaire a enrichi le capital humain au Canada et a eu un impact positif sur le marché du travail, y compris dans le domaine de l’entrepreneuriat. Ce chapitre explore la relation de l’éducation universitaire sur l’entrepreneuriat au Québec, mais également en Ontario et au Canada, avec des analyses économétriques basées sur les données de l’Enquête sur la population active, de l’Enquête nationale auprès des ménages et du Recensement de la population de Statistique Canada. Les résultats montrent qu’un diplôme universitaire augmente la probabilité de devenir entrepreneur et améliore la rémunération des entrepreneurs.
