Human Migration has long been recognized as an important means of redistributing labor to promote regional growth \citep{krieg1997occupational}. Each year a small fraction of the labor force moves between different provinces in Canada. Numerous studies focus on provincial mobility in Canada. However most of the studies are based on census data and estimation of provincial net migration rate to determine overall gain and loss of a province \citep{bernard2008interprovincial, chen2009inter, osberg1991unemployment} without identifying the characteristics of provincial movers; who moves and who stays behind. For example, when workers moving from Quebec to Ontario, are they above average workers or does Quebec lose better workers to Ontario or…
Barclays is a financial institution guilty of fraudulent activity, including misrepresentation of interbank borrowings as well as reporting incredulously low rates to allow the perception of financial health. Many banks were involved and colluding in these practices, therefore one can certainly conclude that the problem does not lie solely with the panel banks but the financial system and its governing regulators as well. LIBOR stands for London Interbank Offered Rate; it was intended to be a…

3.1 Interest Rate Interest rate refers to the amount charged, expressed as a percentage to a borrower for the use of resources (Investopedia,2016). The decrease or increase of interest rate can greatly influence a person’s ability to purchase a residential property. This is so as higher interest rates fall, the demand for it increases and vice versa (Harvard,2011). The impact of interest rate is evidence during its decline in Australian history. In 1990, Australia’s interest rate peaked at…
International migration is a process wherein people leave their country for another one for a variety of reasons, such as economic and cultural factors. As of 2017, there were 258 million people living in a country other than their country of birth, or 3.4% of the world’s population (UN 2017). Asia, Latin America, and Africa have high numbers of emigrants and low numbers of immigrants, while in North America, Europe, and Oceania, it is the opposite (Rubenstein 85). Several governments in the…
Migration can be defined in terms of spatial boundaries as internal and international. Internal migration is the movement of individuals within a country whereas international migration involves the flow of individuals between countries where national boundaries are crossed. The UN (1970:2) defines migration as: “a move from one migration defining area to another (or a move of some specified minimum distance) that was made during a given migration interval and that involves change of residence.”…
for labor migration in many developing countries. Conventionally, international temporary labor migration contributes to reducing poverty because remittances sent by migrant workers supposedly improve the economic conditions of their families back home. However, recent trends suggested that “the age of the great honey pot” is over, especially for Asian unskilled migrant workers (Rahman, 2005). In many cases, the economic costs of migration outweigh the benefits. Today’s migrant workers and their…

When people across national borders during their migration, they are called migrants or immigrants (from Latin: migrare, wanderer)…
inventory at the lower-of-cost-or-market. Freight-related costs from their vendors are included as part of the net cost of merchandise inventories. Other costs associated with acquiring, storing and transporting merchandise inventories to their retail stores are expensed as incurred and included in the cost of goods sold (Merchandise Inventories, 62). The inventory estimate adjusts for projected physical inventory losses. Physical inventory is taken periodically to ensure the inventory…
From Money to Nets to Lives Humans often take their own lives for granted; never thinking too much of those who may be less fortunate. We go about our daily lives worried about celebrities, or sports; rather than food or uncontrolled diseases in our country. Many others do not get that luxury. Rick Reilly writes his article, “Nothing But Nets,” on the back page of popular sports magazine, Sports Illustrated, to request money from his audience, so that mosquito nets may be purchased for African…
