He speculated that despite Liberal leader Jean Chretien "waving about his little red plan," the Reform agenda will be implemented, paving the way for a right wing Parliament. The awardâ€"winning writer spoke to the Canadian Club on the comeback of Canadian manufacturing â€" which he dubbed a renaissance â€" and why Canada still has a bright future. He said that misconceptions and "monsters in the closet" including the national debt, deficits, labor and taxes all combine for a common streak of pessimism that run through Canadians. For instance, he said one misconcepâ€" tion about the country is that it remains a predominantly "rocks and trees," resourceâ€"driven economy. He points to economist Nula Beck‘s research detailâ€" ing that the electronic industry employs more people than the pulp and paper industry and, in Alberta, the financial sector employs more than oil and gas. "So we must dispell the notion that we are a primitive, resource based econâ€" omy," he said. He added Canadian exports have risen from being just 17% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in the 19505 to a current 27% of the GDP. * Loblaws e Food City « Canadian Tire * Kmart e AP « Ultra Mart e BiWay * Miracle Mart * 1.G.A. * Aikenheads * Indian Food Sweets * Longo‘s * Revion Canada Inc. * Corbetts Torics To BE DiscussED Your Host $45â€"9742 or 845â€"3824 GUEST SPEAKERS Although critics point to all the jobs lost in manufacturing since the agreeâ€" ment â€" about 400,000 â€" he said the real "acid test" is the North American marâ€" ket. And it is here than Canada continâ€" ues to make inroads. "In the past 10 years, there has been a trillion dollar growth in manufacturing and while in 1981 the Canadian share was 7%, since free trade it has climbed to 11%," he said. "We are doing well with free trade." But it is in the manufacturing sector that Canada shines, claimed Lichfield. "And generally, whenever the govâ€" ernment went in, it would be for a showâ€" case Canadian product, by that I mean moneyâ€"losing," said Lichfield, noting examples such as the CANDU reactors and the sportscars made in New Brunswick under Premier Richard Hatfield. All of that altered with the free trade agreement and according to Lichfield, there has been a resurgence in the manuâ€" facturing sector. "The manufacturing sector is really the lone star of the Canadian economy," he said, claiming it is broader and more diversified than ever before. He noted that last year, 52% of the GDP was from manufacturing and 75% of all employâ€" ment was from manufacturing. He said while the growth in manufacturing in the U.S. was 5% and in the U.K. was 2%, it was 6% a year in Canada. "It (manufacturing) is really our affirmation to the world that we can do more than dig up rocks," he said. He said for years, the manufacturing sector was plagued with government involvement and massive protection. Member of Royal Bank Group RBC DOMINION SECURITIES
