Canadians have a right to live in cities that meet their basic needs in a dignified way, but in recent decades increased inequality and polarization have been reshaping the social landscape of Canada’s urban areas. This book examines the dimensions and impacts of increased economic inequality and urban socio-spatial polarization since the 1980s. Based on the work of the Neighbourhood Change Research Partnership, an innovative national comparative study of seven major cities, the authors reveal the dynamics of neighbourhood change across the Canadian urban system. While the heart of the book lies in the project’s findings from each city, other chapters provide important context. Taken together, they offer important understandings of the depth and the breadth of the problem at hand and signal the urgency for concerted policy responses in the decades to come.

As the federal government's recent 'New Deal for Cities' suggests, the importance of cities is now widely recognized. Large urban centres are seen at once as primary engines of the economy and as concentrations of societal problems: poverty, homelessness, criminality, environmental degradation. Calls are thus mounting not only for the allocation of more resources but for the adoption of new policies, grounded in urban realities, that will enable Canadian cities to function more effectively. This third edition of Canadian Cities in Transition has been completely revised and updated. Examining the uneven development and uncertain future of Canadian cities, 41 specialists in the field-urban geographers, political scientists, urban planners, civil engineers-offer state-of-the-art understanding of everything from the evolution of the Canadian urban system to site-specific design, problems of transportation and infrastructure, the containment of urban sprawl, the impacts of immigration and gentrification, and the sustainability of cities-both environmentally and economically. The 27 chapters are supported by abundant illustrative material-maps, tables, figures, and photographs-and followed by two appendices, one discussing the changing nature of urban research and the other presenting essential data on Canada's census metropolitan areas. In addition, for the first time this new edition includes a comprehensive bibliography. Required reading for students of Canadian urban geography and urban studies, Canadian Cities in Transition: Local Through Global Perspectives will also be an invaluable resource for anyone concerned about the future of Canada's cities.

Students of Canadian urbanism have paid less attention to the influence of public policy on the development and character of urban places than they have to the influence of economic forces, technological change, geography, culture, and language. They also tend to treat large cities in isolation from the metropolitan areas with which their fates are intertwined. In this two-volume study, public policy and metropolitan areas are the principal matters of interest. Volume One looks at linkages between public policy and changes occurring within or impinging on Canada's system of metropolitan areas and its 25 individual components. It considers changes in the Canadian economy and in the forces that drive it, in the nature of work and workplaces, in the participation of women in the labour force, in the social composition of metropolitan populations, and in public attitudes to the environment. Volume Two deals with aspects of urban policymaking at the federal, provincial, municipal and (in some areas) metropolitan or regional levels of government. It shows that policies adopted by all levels of government can have important consequences for metropolitan area development and social character, even though the Canadian constitution clearly makes provincial governments responsible for municipal institutions and local services.
