註釋In 1985, the report of the Royal Commission on the Economic Union & Development Prospects for Canada (commission chair Donald Macdonald) set out recommendations that became a focus for the development of economic & social policy in Canada. This volume of papers reviews the contribution that the Macdonald Commission report made to Canadian public policy, examines the changes since then, and looks at the enduring lessons that policymakers can draw from its conclusions. The volume begins with a personal perspective on the Commission's work & report by Donald Macdonald, then presents papers on macro stability & economic growth (the economic & political climate, inflation, income policy, the deficit, unemployment, living standards), labour markets & social policy (including immigration, labour-management relations, education & training, income security), international trade (notably the recommendation for a Canada-United States free trade agreement), and federalism & Canada's economic union (executive federalism & regionalism, proportional representation, Senate reform, trade & capital markets, securities regulation, fiscal agreements, intergovernmental transfers).
