Editorial Reviews
Review
This is an important book which fills a glaring void in the current literature on the contemporary geography and economy of Canada. It is a straight-forward guide to Canada's economic geography, useful in its organization and easy to read and comprehend. Derek Eberts, Brandon University for Royal Geographical Society (Volume 169)
