The editorial overview for Issue 22 introduces five articles on: where Canada’s productivity problem really lies and what to do about it; the link between innovation and productivity in Canadian manufacturing; deindustrialization in Sweden; industry contributions to GDP and productivity growth in Canada and the U.S.; and productivity trends in Canadian agriculture over the past half-century.

Cet aperçu éditorial pour le numéro 22 présente cinq articles portant sur : où réside réellement le problème de productivité du Canada et que faire à ce sujet; le lien entre innovation et productivité dans le secteur manufacturier canadien; la désindustrialisation en Suède; les contributions industrielles à la croissance du PIB et de la productivité au Canada et aux États-Unis; et les tendances de productivité dans l’agriculture canadienne au cours du dernier demi-siècle.
