Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge and Brantford most vulnerable to tariffs
#69
I don’t agree on that one - growth is always possible. When the last “exploitable” labour pool is used up, everyone will have been chasing efficiency for decades… there’s a reason why we have more food than ever today and only 1% as many agricultural workers as we used to. The future doesn’t have to be zero-sum… the people who lost their job maintaining horse carriages could have had no idea the jobs that were to be created by the upcoming car, but to them the sky would have still been genuinely falling. Same with candlemakers and cobblers and those offices full of engineers with slide rules…
