The Index for Canada
Data
Recent work on the Index of Economic Well-being has focused on comparisons across countries, so that there is no current data base for Canada only. However, more detailed data can be made use of from Canadian sources when there is no concern of comparability across countries. Therefore, a data base for Canada is currently being compiled making use of the new scaling methodology, and will be available here soon.
