The Canadian Standard of Living, Productivity and Innovation: Core Productivity Drivers and Diagnostics

Productivity, innovation adoption and standard of living are intrinsically linked. Due to lagging productivity for almost 50 years, Canada’s standard of living has dramatically declined — a trend felt by individuals, communities and businesses across the country.

The inaugural lecture of The Canadian Standard of Living, Productivity and Innovation series will be presented by renowned economist Ricardo Hausmann, founder and director of the Growth Lab at Harvard Kennedy School. He will examine how emerging forces including new technologies, alongside enduring factors such as natural resources, are reshaping productivity, prosperity and Canada’s economic trajectory.
