Extract

This study sponsored by the National Bureau of Economic Research lives up to the Bureau's object which is “to ascertain and to present to the public important economic facts and their interpretation in a scientific and impartial manner.” Important economic facts are presented to throw light on four topics: concentration in Canadian manufacturing industries in 1948; differences in concentration between plants and firms in Canadian manufacturing industries at the same date; differences between firm concentration in a number of Canadian manufacturing industries in 1948 and firm concentration in the corresponding United States industries in 1947; and the trend in the concentration of plants in Canadian manufacturing industries in the period from 1922 to 1948.
