Description: "Most Canadians - about 80 per cent of the population - live in cities, and the urban environment in Canada has increasingly become the engine of economic growth and the focal point of pressing social issues, such as poverty, homelessness, and environmental degradation.

In this completely revised and updated second edition of Canadian Cities in Transition, 36 urban geographers, political scientists, sociologists, city planners, and civil engineers from across Canada examine the inherently complex and dynamic nature of Canadian cities, historically, in the present, and in planning for the future."--BOOK JACKET.
