Canada needs an industrial strategy that serves public goods, not corporate interests

One major Canadian company is a striking example of this legacy. In the 1930s, Joseph-Armand Bombardier, a mechanic from Valcourt, Québec, began experimenting with snow-going vehicles in the wake of the death of his two-year old son who couldn’t be transported to life-saving medical care due to a frigid winter blizzard. Responding to this tragedy, Joseph-Armand’s goal was to create a reliable vehicle that could traverse deep snow and remote terrains.

TIL. That's a heartbreaking origin story.

Amen brothers and sisters. There is nothing Canadians can't do for ourselves.

Golabization was a race to the bottom.

As permanent draught takes hold of the American Midwest, it will affect agricultural output there, and the Ukraine war will also affect food production. So, Canada might produce more food, if temperatures rise? Isn't it natural to assume that what is now grown farther south, in a future of elevated temperatures, might grow well in the north?
