Canada -- HiTech or just resources?

Getting out of isotope production may be the right thing to do -- my sense is we should keep producing but I am prepared to be convinced otherwise.

That said, the debate goes back to the question of whether Canada is a resource based country, with some manufacturing, or if we are a nation that makes stuff.

There is no shame in being a farmer or a miner or drilling for oil. But most Canadians live in cities and it's hard to farm in a condo.
