Abstract

As rates of population and labour force growth slow in Canada, the country faces important challenges in promoting economic growth and sustaining prosperity. Among the most important public issues are increasing labour force participation rates among groups with low or declining rates of work and reforming education to better prepare graduates for the jobs of the new economy. At the same time, Canada needs to respond to the shifting geography of work. The concentration of employment in a limited number of major urban centres is driving young people to seek work in high-cost cities, while many smaller cities and regions face the prospect of economic and demographic decline. Alors que les taux de population et la croissance de la population active ralentissent au Canada, le pays devra relever d’importants defis pour promouvoir la croissance economique et maintenir la prosperite. Les plus importantes questions d’ordre public porteront, entre autres, sur le taux de participation, au sein de la population active, de groupes presentant des taux d’emploi faibles ou en declin et la reforme de l’education afin de mieux preparer les diplomes aux emplois de la nouvelle economie. Le Canada doit, en meme temps, aborder la geographie changeante du travail. La concentration des emplois dans quelques grands centres urbains pousse les jeunes a chercher du travail dans les villes ou le cout est eleve, alors que les villes plus petites et les regions sont confrontees au declin economique et demographique. Mots-cles : population et environnement; climat; utilisation d’energie; pointe de population
培育加拿大下一代:劳动力市场研究案例
随着加拿大人口增长率和劳动力增长放缓,该国在促进经济增长和维持繁荣方面面临重大挑战。在最重要的公共问题中,工作率低或下降的群体劳动力参与率不断提高,教育改革,为毕业生更好地准备新经济中的工作。与此同时,加拿大需要应对工作地理的变化。就业集中在数量有限的主要城市中心,正在推动年轻人在高成本城市寻找工作,而许多较小的城市和地区面临经济和人口下降的前景。随着加拿大人口和劳动力增长放缓,该国将面临促进经济增长和保持繁荣的重大挑战。除其他外,最重要的公共政策问题将涉及就业率低或下降的群体在劳动力中的参与率,以及教育改革,以便更好地为新经济中的就业做好准备。与此同时,加拿大必须解决不断变化的工作地理问题。就业集中在几个大城市中心,导致年轻人在成本高的城市寻找工作,而较小的城市和地区面临经济和人口下降。关键词:人口与环境;气候;能源使用;人口高峰
