The relationship between Canadian trade and economic indicators

Hypothesis For The Study:
The increasing amount of Canadian international trade has positive effects on Canadian economy growth as well
living. And the decreasing amount of Canadian international trade has negative effects on our economy and stand
Original Attempt:
Originally, my plan was to compare the amount of Canadian total export value and total import value from 1999
indicators such as Canadian unemployment rate, real GDP, poverty line, consumer price index and inflation rates
see whether there is a relationship between the amount of trade and our economy and standard of living.
Problems Encountered / Future Possible Problems and Viable Solutions:

1. A five year-period comparison is not able to clearly indicate the trend of the relationship between the amount o
The results will be misleading.
Viable solution: In order to provide a complete analysis, I decided to extend the time period to at least 10 years. S

past 12 years with the changes in other indicators in the same time period, which will enable me to present a bigg

2. By only comparing the total amount of Canadian trade to the Canadian real GDP will end up with a biased rela

Viable solution: First of all, I will randomly selecte 4 provinces from all the provinces excluding those with popu

In this set of analysis, Canadian Export Value, Canadian Import Value, and Canadian Trade Balance
are the independent variables and will be compared with other key indicators such as
unemployment rate, inflation rate and so on. Each dependent variable (key indicators) will be
compared with all three independent variables respectively by using scatter plots. This will enable
me to answer the following questions: Does the amount of export have a impact on this key
indicator? What about the amount of import? What about the trade balance? and is the relationship
between the two variables reasonable?

the relationship between the two variables reasonable?

es, it is reasonable because as export increase, those
anufacturers will need to hire more people to work and it is
asonable that unemployment has decreased.

es, as the amount of import increase, the unemployment rate
ecrease. The relationship between these two variables is very
rong because the coefficient of determination is very close to 1.

o, this relationship is unreasonable becuase as import increase, the
omestic market will become harder to compete and many business
ill close down and cause unemployment.Thus this relationship is
isleading and should not be used.
oes the amount of trade balance have a impact on the

nemployment rate?
es, as the amount of surplus in trade increase, the unemployment
te decrease. The relationship between these two variables is
latively strong because the coefficient of determination is still
bove 0.5.

es, it is reasonable because having a trade surplus means export
xceeds import, which will create more jobs than losses and cause
nemployment rate to drop. And by comparing to the previous two
atter plots, this one is the most reasonable one because it took in
count of effects of both export and import.

In this set of analysis, Canadian Export Value, Canadian Import Value, and Canadian Trade
Balance are the independent variables and will be compared with Canadian real GDP per
Worker per hour worked by all industries. Again, each dependent variable will be compared
with all three independent variables respectively by using scatter plots. This will enable me to
determine the impact of the amount of trade in different industries.

In this set of analysis, only the Canadian Trade Balance is the independent variable and will be
compared with the poverty line of different family sizes within communities with different
population because it is pointless to compare the amount of trade and the poverty lines without
including the effects of both export and import. The comparisons will enable me to determine
the impact of Canadian trade balance has on families with different sizes in cities with different
population.
