"Shows how one of the main factors in Canada's unemployment and economic decline is its lack of research and development in industry, because U.S. headquarters of Canadian plants do not provide for research and development outside the U.S. The Ontario Research Foundation offers such resources and examples are cited of industries which have benefited by them, such as Blue Mountain Pottery, and Candu company and Aquarobic. Interviewed, among others, are Premier William Davis of Ontario, Dennis McDermott of the C.L.C., John Gardner of the Science Council of Canada, and Dr. Rein Peterson of York University."
