My take would be that technological change that boosts productivity does not
lead to job losses so long as the productivity gains feed into effective
demand, especially via higher wages. Times of rapid productivity growth have
coincided with growing employment.

I have lots of stuff including two papers written in the past few months on
tech change and job loss but they use US data and evidence. I'll share them
if you are interested.

Hi all,
Can anyone point me to anything (doesn’t even need to be current) on job
losses due to tech change in Canada or better yet, in BC?
Thanks!
