"To adjust the POLYMOD results to fit Canadian demographic structures, we take the distributions extracted from POLYMOD and rescale them so that their averages match those determined by Prem."

"Since the workschool distributions from POLYMOD are fit to a 2-variable distribution we have to make a choice as to how to adjust those parameters. We first modify only p, keeping alpha from POLYMOD fixed."
