Service Industries - Specialization in Health and Education Services, 1996

Service Industries - Specialization in Health and Education Services, 1996 Health and education services now dominate the public sector, and have become important components of the local economy and social well-being. The map shows the difference between the actual employment in education and health activities and the expected level, based on the city's population. For the most part, these services are funded by provincial agencies, although local agencies may make location decisions. Education and health facilities are not closely related to income levels, so the expected levels of employment depend mainly on the population size. Cities with more health and education jobs than expected are specialized, while those with negative values are deficient. 2022-03-14 Natural Resources Canada geoinfo@nrcan.gc.ca Society and Cultureeconomymapservice industry Download the English JP2 File through HTTPJP2 https://ftp.geogratis.gc.ca/pub/nrcan_rncan/raster/atlas_6_ed/eng/6296_service_industries_specialization_health_education_services_1996.jp2 Download the English ZIP (PDF,JPG) file through HTTPZIP https://ftp.geogratis.gc.ca/pub/nrcan_rncan/raster/atlas_6_ed/eng/6296_service_industries_specialization_health_education_services_1996.zip Download the French JP2 File through HTTPother https://ftp.geogratis.gc.ca/pub/nrcan_rncan/raster/atlas_6_ed/fra/6296_industries_de_services_specialisation_services_sante_education_1996.jp2 Download the French ZIP (PDF, JPG) File through HTTPZIP https://ftp.geogratis.gc.ca/pub/nrcan_rncan/raster/atlas_6_ed/fra/6296_industries_de_services_specialisation_services_sante_education_1996.zip
