Health Care Technology
New health care technologies are often incorporated into the health care system without proper evaluation of their effectiveness or their efficiency. Dissatisfaction may develop as a technology fails to meet expectations
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 v̀alue-added' services. This conference met to discuss implications of the growing service sector, with the larger goal of identifying frameworks for policies to support an efficient and expanding system for production and exchange of services domestically and internationally.
Tug of War
First published in 1986, Tug of War offers an analytical look at power struggles between provincial and federal governments during the 1980s. With one provincial government urging secession, another attacking Ottawa's energy policies by deliberately limiting the flow of oil to the rest of the country, and the national government intent on ratifying a new Constitution with or without provincial assent, Canadian governments faced the 1980s in fighting form. A witty, relentless but fair-minded analyst, Milne strips away partisan rhetoric, and offers a close examination of the ebb and flow of Canadian politics in the first half of the 1980s.

Canadian banks will have to move beyond their traditional commercial banking activities, where Japanese financial institutions have a well-established edge, into newer, more creative money and capital market activities. And traditional, strict lines between the various banking activities must blur in order for Canada to acquire the same breadth of financial expertise as other global players. Canadian banks also must blur the distinction they tend to make between their activities at home and in Japan. As for Canada's securities companies, today's strengths may become tomo...
Foreign Direct Investment
From the back cover: Foreign direct investment and multinational enterprises play a major but controversial role in Canada. Why do we see multinational enterprises use the subsidiary to transfer their techniques and products rather than national enterprises selling their products to foreigners through markets? What impacts do multinational enterprises have on the economic growth, balance of payments, industrial performance, and national independence of the home country? Professor Safarian addresses these questions, and others, as he surveys the research of Canadian economists in this field. Although economists have recently produced more and better analysis of foreign direct investment, the author maintains that additional research is required. The complex macro- and micro-economic impacts require more precise theoretical and empirical study....Sarafin concludes that economists and other social scientists must close the gaps in understanding foreign direct investment.
