Articles written on Jurisdictional Advantage

Institute for Competitiveness and Prosperity
The institute site is a veritable treasure trove of analysis and commentary on competitiveness and prosperity issues. The site includes over a dozen working papers, Ontario annual reports for each year since 2002, Canada annual reports for each year since 2004, and numerous other reports. The ICP is ably led by James Milway, its Executive Director.
