Abstract: There is a growing consensus among academics and policy-makers that most industrialized economies are increasingly becoming "knowledge-based". Knowledge, both as an input and an output, is seen a key source of long-term growth and job creation. The study examines the relationship between structural change and the employment performance of the Canadian economy over the period 1971 to 1991, using Statistics Canada's input/output model.
