The methodology used in the model has come largely from previous work on community dependencies carried out
by BC Stats. An important determining factor of differential growth by region is the nature of major projects coming
on-stream in the outlook time frame. See the Major Projects Inventory for more information.
The B.C. Labour Market Scenario Model (BCLMSM) is used as a benchmark for industry employment. BC Labour Market Outlook 2010-2020 provides a summary of the output of the BCLMSM.
Funding for this project was made possible through the Labour Market Information initiative under the
Canada-British Columbia Labour Market Agreement (LMA), which is administered for B.C. by the Ministry of Jobs, Tourism and Innovation.
