Conclusion: Capacity for Choice / $rHoberg, George -- $tBibliography 330 $aDrawing together an interdisciplinary group of scholars, this collection of essays, part of the Trends Project of the Government of Canada, examines North American integration and its potential future impact on Canadian life. Trends in integration, knowledge gaps, and policy implications are analyzed in eight areas: trade, the labour market, the brain drain, macroeconomics, federalism, social welfare, the environment, and culture.The contributors argue the consequences of continental integration have not been as formidable as widely believed. While some policy instruments have been surrendered in exchange for access to larger markets and pressures for harmonization have probably increased, Canada still retains significant room to maneuver, even in areas of policy most affected by growing economic integration. The most severe constraints imposed by globalization may be more in the mind than in a reality that is enormously complex and ambiguous. Canada has formidable capacities for domestic policy choices in a wide range of sectors. It is up to Canadians and their elected officials to chose how to exercise that freedom of choice. 410 0$aPolicy research (Toronto, Ont.) 606 $aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / International Relations / General$2bisacsh 607 $aCanada$xEconomic policy 607 $aNorth America$xEconomic integration 607 $aCanada$xPolitics and government$y1980- 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / International Relations / General. 676 $a337.1/7 702 $aHoberg$b George 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456284903321 996 $aCapacity for choice$92485172 997 $aUNINA
