    Well, it’s untrue that globalization is a binary true or false benefit, though on the surface it’s a logical question.

    Until you consider sovereignty. Particularly food sovereignty. It’s more than strategic, it’s the foundation of a stable, rule-of-law society. So it’s more than economics, it’s a governmental social responsibility, and self-preservation.

    Supply management is a success in Canada, despite some problems, because it stabilizes society, as more small farms is more desirable in many ways than big centralized ag.

    And you are right, there are a number of economic sectors we could look more closely at with a mind towards sovereignty, maybe including footwear and furniture, though food and medicines come first.
