Suppose that a large number of Canadian consultants decide to take employment in Europe due to better benefits and work environments at European companies. The following graph shows the labour market for consultants in Canada. Show the effect of the emigration on the Canadian labour market for consultants by shifting the labour demand curve, the labour supply curve, or both. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. (?) O Supply Demand Supply Demand LABOUR WAGE
The graphs below show demand for labor in two countries, A and B, and several vertical labor supply curves. Use these diagrams to answer the question about the effects of migration from one country to the other in search of a higher wage. Let the amount of migration (change in labor supply) be equal to the (identical) horizontal distance between the supply curves in both graphs.
