Despite its shortcomings, Canada is not an economic basket case​

You must have missed the research that said the oil and gas industry is dragging down our productivity. I can repost it if you want?

Kind of confirmed my post Glenn.

Nothing like a personal meeting to get all the details on who gets the cash.
Most other countries send obsolete equipment but PMJT likes the cash.

The subs are just an announcement with no contracts in place.
Most important requirement will be maximum pork barrel.

Abstract

We study the behaviour of Canadian Total Factor Productivity (TFP) growth over the past 60 years. We find that the observed stagnation during the last 20 years is accounted for entirely by the oil sector. Higher oil prices made capital-intensive sources of oil like the oil sands viable to extract on a commercial scale. However, the greater input required per barrel of oil slowed TFP growth. Comparing Canadian TFP growth with that of the United States and Norway reinforces these results. However, our result should not be interpreted to carry any welfare implications.
