Im not particularly worried about Canadians, or even other more developed nations. We can always trade for whatever is on the market, and with friends like the Yanks, we can bomb for the rest if need be, the way they do for oil. What worries me is the people who are living at subsistence levels, and the effects this might have given the increased sensitivity of worlds markets to smaller and smaller global factors.
Its amazing what a mob of starving people can do to geopolitics. Even if they are poor starving people.
