It really might be the question for middle powers as a thing, if we can make deep and liquid capital markets across many different countries. There is a ton of capital already there, we just need to mobilize it. And also you dont need to hang out with the cuddle puddle people for funding
Isaiah Bishop@isaiahbishop.bsky.social · 2h agoin a perfect world, we would have beautiful, connected capital markets between Canada/UK/Australia/EU at minimum, plus some extras like Singapore
A big issue with the whole "replace the US" thing is that we need to mobilize capital to scale things and right now we are not meeting that challenge at all

Green and non-green innovation respond very differently to the business cycle. While non-green innovation declines after contractionary shocks, green innovation increases. Thus, R&D subsidies are more effective – and generate relatively more green innovation – during downturns.

Charlie Angus@charlieangus104.bsky.social · yesterdayIn Chrysta Freeland's new book she states that Howard Lutnick threatened to invade Canada "by sundown" over Doug Ford's electricity surcharge.
