Abstract

Data are collected mainly from Statistics Canada dataset. The economic Input-Output data, labor and population data, and trade flow are available at the provincial level and collected for Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba provinces. Water use data are available and collected at national scale. The links to these datasets are as follows.
