I do feel sorry for the fine folks that will lose their jobs over
this, but there will be other opportunities.
Yes. Bankruptcies are sometimes nature's (err, the market's) way of
cleaning up our messes for us. As in nature, most good stuff gets recycled.
I also feel sad that this Canadian institution, with over 100 years of
history, is now nothing more than history.
I remember as a kid of 5 or 6 asking my dad why it said "Northern
Electric" on our telephone and, after hearing his explanation, being
somehow reassured that Canada was good enough to manufacture its own
telephones. Sadly, no more. Well, even at the end the manufacturing was
mostly in China anyway.
But frankly, they've been deteriorating for many years now, and it's
time to harvest the organs, say a tearful farewell, and lay the
mangled corpse to rest.
Yup. "Farewell".
