Abstract

Le présent document décrit la façon dont les établissements de fabrication canadiens s'adaptent à la concurrence croissante des importations en provenance de pays à bas salaires en modifiant leur portefeuille de produits. Nous faisons la distinction dans l'analyse entre les produits « de base » et les produits « périphériques », ainsi qu'entre les produits différenciés et les produits homogènes. Nous tenons compte également des complémentarités de coûts et des complémentarités technologiques en nous appuyant sur les liens, au niveau des entrées-sorties, entre les produits fabriqués par un établissement. Nous donnons des preuves d'un important roulement des produits dans les établissements au cours de la période allant de 1988 à 1996. Les changements les plus importants ont eu lieu dans les établissements multiproduits et concernent les produits périphériques. Les produits les plus touchés sont ceux susceptibles d'être utilisés comme entrées dans la fabrication du produit « de base », ceux qui sont homogènes (plutôt que différenciés) et ceux qui présentent des complémentarités d'entrées relativement faibles avec le produit de base. Les établissements qui font face à une forte concurrence des importations modifient leur portefeuille de produits de façon à se concentrer sur la fabrication de leur produit de base et à s'écarter de celle de produits périphériques non apparentés.
