On top of the “amen”, teaching economics is absolutely right. And if we're looking at education, particularly in the grade schools, in the high schools, and of course in the universities, we have a situation in Canada where we focus our entrepreneurial efforts around the MBA programs. Wonderful. MBA programs typically teach people how to work and they play an important role in teaching people how to work in Fortune 1000 companies. Great. That does nothing in terms of addressing how to manage entrepreneurial companies. There is nothing wrong with MBAs, and I'm not criticizing them, but we have not gone far enough.
So it's a bit of an advertisement. I'm working currently with Ryerson in Toronto to actually form a group and a course of studies that will address management in entrepreneurial companies--and entrepreneurial companies alone. But this is a pilot, the first that we know of. We have to have a whole lot more of that kind of thing going on, to encourage grassroots, to give entrepreneurs the skills in order for them to take their companies to the next level.
You're absolutely right. It's not only a funding problem, but it's a cultural problem that has really come to pass because of our take on the educational system, which says somehow we're not going to touch business and economics.
