The Canadian economy is in reset mode with the world-wide price drop in oil and declining international demand devastating the export-oriented resources sectors.  This has forced a related correction in the previously resource-escalated Canadian dollar back to, and maybe even below, reasonable price parity.  We are also experiencing instability in our saturated service and retail sectors. This duress has promoted some political attention back to the long term hollowed out manufacturing sectors as a possible area of growth and support for a now fragile Canadian economy.

In this presentation we review the history and reasons for the decline of our industries and how our manufacturing sector leadership, our technical professionals, the general public and our political leaders can respond to these new economic conditions and what success factors will be necessary to Take Back Manufacturing.
