Sociology homework help
There is a growing number of Canadians engaged in interprovincial employment (Canadians who work in one province and reside in another). The province of residence is the ‘sending’ province, and the province of work is the ‘receiving’ province. Some interprovincial workers commute daily across provincial boundaries, whereas other interprovincial workers may commute by air, ferry, or car to work away for extended periods. The purpose of this assignment is to create two choropleth maps (a type of thematic map) to illustrate male and female interprovincial employment in Canada during the period 2002 to 2011 and answer
based on the following article:
Morissette, R., and H. Qui. 2015. “Interprovincial Employment in Canada, 2002 to 2011.” Statistics Canada. https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/en/pub/11-626-x/11-626-x2015047-eng.pdf?st=ftMC2AHt
