"At 5 percent, Canada's population growth was the highest of all G7 countries when
the most recent census was taken. But only a handful of large cities drove that growth,
attracting human and monetary capital from across the country and leaving myriad social,
economic, and environmental challenges behind. Quietly Shrinking Cities investigates
this trend and the practical challenges associated with population loss in smaller
urban centres. Maxwell Hartt meticulously demonstrates that shrinking cities need
to re-think their planning and development strategies in response to a new demographic
reality, questioning whether population loss and prosperity are indeed mutually exclusive."
