- Summary
- From the back cover: Anderson and Bonsor calculate the internal rates of return (IRORs) on capital and expenditures in new manufacturing facilities...in each of northern Ontario, Quebec and southeastern United States. This approach enables them to compare competitiveness and profitability among the three areas....The authors conclude that Canada's corporate tax structure discriminates heavily against new firms and against investment in structures. On the other hand, inflation does not appear to alter IRORs in a serious manner. Anderson and Bonsor criticize the excessive number of arbitrary changes to which the Canadian corporate tax system has been subjected. They also argue that the substantial grants under the 1979 Pulp and Paper Modernization Program were unnecessary and objectionable....Of special concern to the pulp and paper industry, however are the limits to Ontario's timber supplies. These resource constraints mean that the pulp and paper industry will not be able to provide a stream of new jobs in the future.
