Traded and Non-traded Services
The service sector is steadily growing as services that previously were undertaken within the family unit, now show up in social accounts as health care, education and public sector services. Technological changes make possible a process of intermediation in service activities, a separation in space or time of the recipient of services from the original producer, and the increase of v̀€alue-added' services.

Most recently, there have been several advocates for adoption in Canada of a strategy of "picking winners". This means identifying and providing government support to industries with a high growth potential. As a corollary, it means not providing support to industries deemed to be "non-winners"....Professor George has approached the question by undertaking an examination of Canadian experience to date along with an examination of the experiences several other countries have had with a strategy of targetting high-growth industries. He brings to light information Canadian policy makers should take into account if they contemplate adopting such a strategy for Canada.
