Deindustrialization and demographic change: Evidence from big plant closures and downsizing
Canadian Journal of Economics/Revue canadienne d'économique, EarlyView.Abstract We estimate the causal effect of big manufacturing plant closures and downsizing on the socioeconomic composition of Canadian cities between 2001 and 2021. Our instrumental variables estimates show that big manufacturing plant closures and downsizing—large local labour demand shocks—lead to less population growth and a shift in the demographic
