briefing notes

Imagine you are an economist, sent to the Colony of Vancouver Island on behalf of the British Colonial Office to investigate the slow pace of population growth. In particular you are to report on the workings of the Wakefield System of setting land prices.Some questions to consider: What exactly is the system? How is supposed to work? Is it working as expected? Why or why not? 3. Some options to consider: Stay the course with the policy as enacted. Revise the price charged. Keep the price but revise the use of the revenue. Abandon the system.
