Many parts of "first world" countries are in a similar situation. The US is large.

Nope, I didn't. Doesn't change too much. Once they try the experiment in all of Canada and make it permanent, then I'll acknowledge the it was tried in Canada. With a city size of just over 8000 (probably 7000 in the 1970s), it isn't likely to have a particularly complex economic environment.
