Lethbridge has not been affected nearly as much as other cities with the decrease of oil prices because of their reliance in agriculture and even more have been doing very well as a result of the increase in beef prices with the large amount of feedlots surrounding Lethbridge. This makes Lethbridge very unique. Lethbridge is uncommon to the other cities with the research center that is town, meaning the presence of the provincial government, as well as the university and college, creating a strong public sector (Villeneuve, 2015). The article provides a clear summary of the Economic insights into Seven Canadian Mid-sized Cities, the only thing to be adjusted would be the inclusion of a table with the stats Villeneuve uses in order to make the numbers more relevant and have a more significant

The OECD: An Environmental Comparison, a report comparing Canada’s environmental record to those of 28 other Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries. The report found that, of the twenty-nine countries included, Canada ranked 28th, only above the United States, which “provides compelling evidence that Canada is a laggard, not a leader, with one of the poorest environmental records in the industrialized world” . As a follow up to this report, the David Suzuki foundation published a report, authored once again by David Boyd, titled Sustainability within a Generation - A NEW VISION FOR CANADA. The document was intended to set a plan for Canada’s environmental policies going forward.
(Guiding Question A) Case Study 1: Exchange of goods and technology The exchange of goods and technologies has been a key aspect in the success of nations worldwide. The general idea is to move forward with the help of other nations by exchanging goods and technologies. Specifically, guns and raw materials. The British played a big role in the exchange of these goods.
It is unfortunate that Canada does not have the funds for technological advances, because they have the brains for it. However, Candians go to the US for innovation and to show their brilliancy. On the contrary, the United States depends on Canada as well, such as being dependent on Canadas 'real estate many years ago.
Technology Many innovations led to the growing industry

One of the most recent innovations has been the launch of the CASSIOPE. This is the first made-in-Canada multi-purpose small satellite platform that allows space experts to learn about the mysteries of space weather. Another contribution in the areas of space mechanics is the ExoMars. It is a project the Canadian Space Agency was able to bid on and won and therefore works in partnership with the European team to develop the rover that explores Mars. Specifically, the Canadian team built the communication antenna subsystem.

With increasing unemployment over the years gold is a growing industry helping the economy as it is statistically providing more jobs each year (Excluding years around 2008 because of the recession). Gold also helps small towns across Canada grow by providing employment for locals and revenue for the town to expand. Gold mines have created and supported building of lots of new roads across Canada as they use them to get access to remote areas but also make them available to the public, as a result people can have more direct roots to destinations. Over the years gold mining has been a large part of our economy as it helps to provide a greater GDP, employs lots of workers around the nation, and helps small towns
Throughout the 1970s, there was a huge international debate about transfer of technology. The paradigm used in that debate included technology licensing from a transnational firm to a host-nation subsidiary or licensee producing for the home market. The issues were that the costs of the technology (many of which were vailed through transfer prices or management fees) were too high, that host country use of the technology was often obstructed by restrictive clauses, and that the licensees often could not manage to get the best technology. The solution was to form national technology transfer offices to review inbound technology transfers, to restrict a number of clauses usually included in these licenses, and to try to put a cap on the cost
Intellectual property is one of the most challenging and prolific subjects of all legal matter. In general, Intellectual property is made up of four separate fields of law: trademarks, copyrights, patents, and trade secrets. More specifically, the United States has a long history of dealing with issues of copyright laws. America has been deliberating on issues concerning copyright law since the birth of the constitution in 1787, when James Madison requested that a provision be added to the constitution that would provide protection to literary authors for a determined time. However, copyright laws are not just limited to the United States it applies to 168 nations.
industry exist if broader outlook is considered. Viewing any industry as technologically mature often leads to strategic disaster. Moreover, many important innovations for competitive advantage are mundane and involve no scientific break-through. Innovation can have important strategic implications for low tech as well as hi-tech companies. Porter also addressed that the technology can alter the nature and basis of rivalry among existing competition in several ways.
Although, some may argue that businessmen in the developed countries are greatly benefited as a result of technology
