City Magnets II: Benchmarking the Attractiveness of 50 Canadian Cities City Magnets II: Benchmarking the Attractiveness of 50 Canadian Cities ISRN 12TH Annual National Conference RENAISSANCE TORONTO HOTEL DOWNTOWN May 5-7, 2010 Mario Lefebvre Director, Centre for Municipal Studies www.conferenceboard.ca What’s New • Analysis conducted at the city level rather than at the CMA level, making it easier for city officials to use the results in their policy choices. • Analysis broken down by level of education. This is a very important breakthrough. The study investigates whether certain attributes appeal more to university-educated migrants while other appeal more to non-university-educated migrants. www.conferenceboard.ca The Premise • According to the 2006 Census, 2/3 of Canada’s population growth between 2001 and 2006 was attributable to net immigration. • Statistics Canada predicts that by 2030, net immigration will account for ALL of Canada’s population growth. • Therefore, if a city is unable to attract people, it will be faced with weak population growth down the road, which does not bode well for its economic potential. www.conferenceboard.ca The Premise • The “people go where the jobs are” paradigm is slowly changing and we believe that it will keep on changing. • Given the aging of the population and the impact that this will have on the labour force, more and more businesses will choose to locate in cities with a relatively big pool of skilled labour, allowing them to grow over the short, medium and long term. • As a result, a city that struggles to attract people will also struggle to attract businesses—yet another blow to the future prosperity of that city. www.conferenceboard.ca Methodology • 41 indicators are used to measure a city’s attractiveness to people • Indicators are split between seven domains: Economy, Education, Environment, Health, Housing, Innovation and Society www.conferenceboard.ca Methodology • For each indicator, a grade of A, B, C or D is distributed to each city, using the following formula: (Highest Score – Lowest Score) / 4 • Top quartile gets an A, second quartile a B, etc. www.conferenceboard.ca Methodology • Scores for each indicator are then normalized, allowing for the calculation of overall scores by domain. This is done using the following formula: (Score – Lowest Score) / (Highest Score – Lowest Score) • That way, the highest score gets a 1 and the lowest score gets a 0. The domain score is the average score of all the indicators of that domain. www.conferenceboard.ca Society • 14 indicators, covering: • Accessibility: mode of travel, population density, access to culture • Diversity: foreign-born population, age of population, multilingualism • Social cohesion: immigrant success, crime, gender equality, poverty • Creativity: cultural employment www.conferenceboard.ca 0.8 0.6 0.4 0.2 Society 0.0 A Toronto D www.conferenceboard.ca Montreal Brantford Saguenay Saint John Trois-Rivieres Source: The Conference Board of Canada.

The dynamics of domestic and international migration are too complex to leap to such conclusion. Thus, policy makers have to be careful in crafting policies solely aimed at attracting university graduates. www.conferenceboard.ca Final Thought • Immigrants will be a critical part of Canada’s future and they will continue to flock to our urban centres. Building a strong, competitive and caring Canadian society will require the contributions of immigrants with all kinds of skills and education backgrounds. We have to continue to learn about what makes cities attractive to people in order to find the right policies and guidelines to create dozens of “A” cities, not just a handful. www.conferenceboard.ca Thank you Visit us at: www.conferenceboard.ca www.conferenceboard.ca.

  • Demographic Context
    Demographic context Greater Montréal encompasses 82 municipalities, broken down into 5 territories, and includes the island of Montréal at its centre and the cities of Longueuil and Laval along the north and south shores. According to the 2016 Census, the Montréal census metropolitan area (CMA) had 4,098,930 inhabitants, up 4.2% from 2011. The Toronto CMA’s population rose 6.2% and the Vancouver CMA’s population rose 6.5% over the same period.1 OVER 800,000 CHILDREN UNDER 18 A total of 821,275 children under age 18 were living in the Montréal CMA in 2016. — 46% were between the ages of 13 and 17 (Figure 1). 1 Unless otherwise indicated, demographic data are taken from the 2016 Census. Figure 1.8 Breakdown of the population under the age of 18 (by age) and in three age categories (%), Montréal census metropolitan area, 2016 Source: Statistics Canada (2017). 2016 Census, product no. 98-400-X2016001 in the Statistics Canada catalogue. The demographic weight of children under age 18 in Montréal is higher than in the rest of Quebec, in Vancouver and in Halifax, but is lower than in Calgary and Edmonton. While the number of children under 18 increased from 2001 to 2016, this group’s demographic weight relative to the overall population gradually decreased: from 21.6% in 2001, to 20.9% in 2006, to 20.3% in 2011, and then to 20% in 2016 (Figures 2 and 3).

The folloAving work is intended to supply what has long appeared a desideratum to the tourist who visits Niagara and the St. Lawrence,— a Panoramic or Pic- ture Map of all the most celebrated and picturesque points along this noble river. The Author has, through a variety of difficulties and at great ex- pense, finished the work which he contemplated and however great may have been the task, the assur- ance and encouragement of many friends give him every reason to believe, that he will have no cause to regret the attempt of bringing before the public his Panoramic Guide from Niagara to Quebec. As the country embraced in the range of his illus- trated scenery has been fully explored and noticed by other travellers, the Author has not deemed it necessary to add long descriptions of the different towns and villages to his work.
