AbstractCommercial services, the activities
operating within the private sector, are attracted to markets according
to the population of the area they serve and the level of market
income. The growth rates in commercial services between 1986
and 1996 indicate that growth was widely dispersed across Canada.
Generally, commercial service activities were disproportionately
attracted to the larger centres (Toronto, Montréal); however,
growth was less in these larger cities. High growth rates occurred
throughout Alberta and British Columbia, and around Toronto and
Montréal where the urban markets have grown most rapidly.
