As blue-collar work is being devastated, Canada’s natural resource sector continues to be a pillar of stability and opportunity in the economy. On the latest episode of Pod Bless Canada, MLI Domestic Policy Program Director Aaron Wudrick and MLI Munk Senior Fellow Philip Cross discuss Cross' latest paper titled “A national project: How oil sands investment and production benefit Canada's economy.” Cross and Wudrick examine the sector in terms of production and investment and how, despite roadblocks and pessimism, the oil sands continue to develop. They go on to discuss how the oil sands provide substantial and wide-ranging benefits to Canada as a whole.
