Andrea Mandel-Campbell
A veteran journalist specializing in international business and global competitiveness, Andrea Mandel-Campbell has witnessed globalization’s powerful levelling force first hand – from the gritty Mexican border towns on the banks of the Rio Grande to the smog-choked streets of Beijing. For the most part, however, Canadians have been painfully absent from the rush to offshore, outsource and export into international markets. Unless we start actively pursuing global markets and building our own homegrown multinationals, Canada's drifting fortunes will continue to be blown about by the waves of globalizaton washing over the globe. It’s already happening. It’s time a country notorious for its middle of the road, fence-sitting proclivities, take a stand and come up with a winning strategy for taking on the world. To do that, we’ll first need to ask ourselves some hard questions about what it means to be Canadian and what we want to achieve. Andrea Mandel-Campbell invites you to participate in this crucial and much-needed debate.
