La maldición de los recursos naturales, todo un tema, hasta para una economía como la canadiense.
Yo sigo creyendo que los fundamentalistas ambientales y otros grupos de interés de otras provincias exageran con lo de la “enfermedad holandesa” que podría afectar al país para frenar el supuesto impacto ambiental y los efectos de una mayor producción petrolera y el poder que daría a Alberta principalmente:
Canada is in a fortunate position relative to other developed Western nations. Our government is stable. Our budget deficit is small. Our real estate market is healthy (if somewhat overheated). And unemployment is relatively low. Only the occasional flourish of Quebec separatism keeps things lively in the Great White North. The biggest challenge my country will face in 2013 – and for many years after that – will be the problem of plenty. Specifically, how will Canada manage its large and growing oil wealth?
