3:15 p.m. TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION / L’INNOVATION TECHNOLOGIQUE 15h15 A country’s success in technological innovaon, we are told, has much to do with its capacity to aract talent from all over the world. Has Canada done enough to aract and nurture talent? Why does our official mulculturalism not make us the leading desnaon for technological talent from around the world? Are Canadian universies doing the right things to encourage success in the technological field? Can we sll defend pure, “disinterested” university‐based innovaon? From the Avro Arrow through Telidon and Nortel, the history of Canadian high tech is marked by well‐known failures. What can we learn from studying Canadian failures in the field of technological innovaon? What lessons can we take from our notable successes?

Pour qu’un pays ait un certain succès en innovaon technologique, nous dit‐on, il faut qu’il réussisse à arer des gens talentueux du monde ener. Le Canada a‐t‐il déployé suffisamment d’efforts pour arer et pour culver le talent de ces gens? Pourquoi notre polique officielle de mulculturalisme n’a‐t‐elle pas fait de nous la principale desnaon des gens talentueux du monde ener? Les universités canadiennes font‐elles ce qu’il faut pour encourager le succès dans le domaine technologique? Peut‐on encore plaider en faveur de l’innovaon « pure », désintéressée, en milieu universitaire? Les programmes de « recherche‐créaon », comme ceux qu’on a beaucoup promu au Québec au cours des dernières années, ont‐ ils réalisé leur potenel? Du Avro Arrow à Nortel, en passant par Télidon, l’histoire de la haute technologie au Canada est jalonnée d’échecs bien connus. Quelles leçons pouvons‐nous rer de l’étude des échecs canadiens dans le domaine de l’innovaon technologique?

What are the greatest obstacles confronng Canadians who seek to maintain a career over me? Does your field “eat its young” or allow those within it to age gracefully? Do we have the kinds of safety‐nets or reward systems needed by athletes, cultural creators and technology innovators during lulls in their careers? What might we do beer? Mid‐career success in Canada oen means success outside of this country. Is this always the case? Can you offer good examples of people who have sustained long careers exclusively within Canada? If so, what did they do right? If not, what does this tell us?

Quels sont les plus grands obstacles auxquels font face les Canadiens qui cherchent à mener une carrière à long terme? Votre domaine étouffe‐t‐il dans l’œuf ses jeunes talentueux ou leur permet‐il au contraire d’acquérir une certaine maturité? Avons‐ nous le genre de filet ou de système de récompense dont ont besoin les athlètes, les créateurs dans le domaine de la culture et les innovateurs en technologie pendant les périodes d’accalmie professionnelle? Que pourrions‐nous faire de mieux? Le succès à la mi‐carrière au Canada, c’est souvent un succès à l’extérieur des fronères du pays. Est‐ce toujours le cas? Pouvez‐vous offrir des exemples de gens qui ont mené une longue carrière exclusivement au Canada? Si oui, qu’ont‐ils fait pour y parvenir? Sinon, qu’est‐ce que nous pouvons en déduire ?
