Selected models created by PKE Economics
Provincial Economics Dynamics Model
The Provincial Economic Dynamics Model delivers forecasts for GDP, labour markets, inflation, housing, and trade across Canadian provinces and municipalities. Using an expenditure-based framework, it integrates population trends, energy prices, and interest rates to project regional economic outcomes.
Tariff impacts on trade are embedded to reflect real-world global shifts. Municipal forecasts are scaled from provincial data using employment and population shares.
Built in Python, it supports scenario planning and data-driven policy analysis. Contact for more information.
