Technical Notes


1) In Tables 1, 2 and 3, Cohorts 1 to 4 and Cohorts 7 to 10 were used to tabulate daycare users and those who looked for daycare. Cohorts 5 and 6 were omitted as they covered the phase in of the EI reform.

2) In tables where the percentage impact of the probit impact is provided, such as Table 5, the percentage changes are calculated using the default options in STATA Version 6.0. This implies that the impact of a one-unit change in a continuous variable is calculated at the means whereas a positive dummy variable is calculated at zero and one and the difference is presented.

3) The data used was weighted with weights derived by Statistics Canada to ensure that the COEP survey is representative of the overall population of unemployed.
