Increased domestic consumption. I have some ideas about what they might do to encourage consumption.

I've discreetly tried to push for this idea on a very local level for a few years now. An export economy is a slave economy, giving away the fruits of it's labour and being dependant upon others. Truly developed economies consume around as much as they produce.

Less punitive taxes on consumers, less government-advocated guilt over consumption and invididual investment.

the export slowdown pushed Canada into a trade deficit for the first time since March of 1976. How is this a bad thing?
