Economic Freedom of North America 2004 Report
This index, co-published by The Fraser Institute and the Dallas-based NCPA,
presents the only comprehensive economic freedom ratings for US states
and Canadian provinces.
Just as Economic Freedom of the World seeks to measure economic freedom on
an international basis, Economic Freedom of North America measures
differences in economic freedom among the Canadian provinces and US states.
Economic Freedom of North America allows users to investigate the
relationship between economic freedom and prosperity within North America.
