Economic Freedom of North America 2020, Results for Canada, the United States, and Mexico
Economic Freedom of North America 2020 is the sixteenth edition of the Fraser Institute’s annual report. This year it measures the extent to which—in 2018, the year with the most recent available comprehensive data—the policies of individual provinces and states were supportive of economic freedom, the ability of individuals to act in the economic sphere free of undue restrictions. There are two indices: one that examines provincial/state and municipal/local governments only and another that includes federal governments as well. The former, our subnational index, is for comparison of individual jurisdictions within the same country. The latter, our all-government index, is for comparison of jurisdictions in different countries.- Tuesday, November 17, 2020
