The trend towards decen-
tralizalion of industry and
-commerce has accelerated to
_ the point. where Canadians are
the most nomadic society on
earth, according ta local real
estale broker Wightman &
Smith Really Lid.

The mobility rate, as‘ in-
dicated by Family Allowance °
Statistiés, is just over 25 per
cent. If the general tendency
“conlinues, a few years hence
Canadian families will- be
moving once évery three years.
