In this book, we explore what will happen to Canada in the transition to the next Canadian economy, "If this goes on ..." In the last chapter, we speculate as to what might happen "If only . ..," and throughout, we take a look at some of the "wild cards" being tossed our way with the new technologies bumping up against institutions left over from the last economy, particularly the habits of mind we all fell into during the industrial age.
