Abstract: Canada shares a border with the largest economy in the world. The ability of U.S. businesses to allocate resources to new technologies and new production processes has raised the living standards of U.S. citizens over time. Given the longstanding and deeply integrated economic relationship between Canada and the United States, knowledge of how Canada’s economic performance compares with that of its southern neighbour can provide valuable insights into potential changes in relative living standards between the two countries.
