Thing is that Canada in recognition of signing the original Free Trade Agreement and NAFTA after that and being a signatory to the WTO agreements has basically laid the groundwork for where we are now.
We are as a country still a resource based economy for the most part, despite those glimmers like RIM where we have proven to be able to compete and excel in.
If the world economy cannot afford our products versus product produced by other countries with either less cost or more government support (wether that support is legal or otherwise) we lose and there is nothing we can do to protect our own industries.
P.S. Ken - How do you spin "We're screwed" anyways? :huh: :lol:
