Note: In Table 3, columns fe, fs, and nqp present the provincial averages of each variable over the sample period, where

{f e}_{i} = \sum_{t = 2013}^{2024} {f e}_{i t}

,

{f s}_{i} = \sum_{t = 2013}^{2024} {f s}_{i t}

, and

{n q p}_{i} = \frac{1}{12} \sum_{t = 2013}^{2024} ({f e}_{i t} * {f s}_{i t})

.

The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
