Summarize

David Dodge shares his thoughts on what Canada needs to do to fix its competitiveness problem, especially when compared to the United States on CBC Radio's The House. He says legislation and regulation that has over time made it difficult to invest in Canada needs to be changed; this includes internal trade within the country.

David says, "We've been creating this problem for a number of years. Our real challenge is to stop shooting ourselves in the foot...We've made [private investment] very much more complicated and that has really hurt our productivity."
