Over the past decade BC’s economy has enjoyed a faster rate of real economic growth than have Canada’s other nine provinces, on average. Its gross domestic product (GDP) grew at almost twice the average growth rate of Canada’s other provinces.
BC’s population also grew at a substantially faster rate than the average for other provinces, although the difference was not as marked as in the case of real GDP.
residential housing construction and industries related to the housing sector such as real estate brokerage and mortgage services, architectural services, furniture and appliance producers, and the like.
The average hourly wages of full-time and part-time employees in BC actually increased at a slower rate than in other provinces, on average!
The unemployment rate of BC is 6.5% last year. This is lower than the average rate of the whole country which is 7.4%
The province’s heavy reliance on residential housing as its driver of economic growth has made for an industrially unbalanced growth dynamic.
