The Automotive Crisis - A discussion about the Canadian Auto Industry

This is a longer audioblog...we go through information regarding: employment in the auto sector in Canada, the history of the Auto Pact, some recent articles about what we may need to do to resolve the current auto crisis (protectionism vs. free markets) and of course...some opinion. The audio has improved in this episode...so enjoy.
