title: Poisson regression models of Canadian census division migration flows.
abstract: "This paper examines the amount, spatial pattern, and correlates of migration in Canada at the census division scale.  The effects of distance, economic prosperity, social and cultural conditions, community size, and the housing market are investigated.... Poisson regression techniques were used to avoid the estimation problems frequently encountered in log-normal regression."
