How Canada Wins at Trade
First episode of a two-part look at Canada’s economy and the opportunity to thrive in a new world order. With CUSMA being renegotiated as you listen to this, host Stephen Marche reviews Canada’s trade relationship with the United States and explores what some consider the drawbacks of economic efficiency: making convenient trade deals for short term gain.
Economist Dan Ciuriak makes the case for doing away with the country’s automotive industry, while Flavio Volpe (President of the Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Association) strongly disagrees. And Australian economist Huw McKay describes how his country abandoned car manufacturing and developed robust trading relationships within the Pacific Rim.
Featuring (in order of appearance): Paula Ambra, Dan Ciuriak, Flavio Volpe, Huw Mckay
