Montreal, December 9, 2014 – According to a study by the HEC Montréal Centre for Productivity and Prosperity (CPP), Quebec’s lagging productivity is not only dragging down the province’s economic performance but having also a domino effect on society as a whole. “In the longer term, this effect threatens household’s purchasing power,” explains CPP Director Robert Gagné. “It is becoming essential, and urgent, that we improve labour productivity in Quebec, for that is the only real lever we have to reverse this harmful trend.”
