A question of productivity

Relative to other OECD countries, Canada has many advantages that should propel it to the top of global quality of life rankings. But lagging productivity has been undermining our position. How can innovation, education and partnerships play a role in boosting Canada’s productivity gap? Charles Baillie, one of the country’s foremost business leaders and philanthropists, explores what drives Canada’s economy and what is needed to strengthen its global standing.
