The Douglas D. Purvis Prize in Economics

Established by family, friends and colleagues of Professor D. Purvis in memory of his outstanding contributions to Canadian economics, to Queen's, and to the Department of Economics.

To honour the memory of my father, Douglas D. Purvis, who was head of the Economics Department for many years, in the most fitting way possible - giving back to the institution that the family all loved, and that my mother, brother and self all attended.
