So, if you look at the combination of income taxes, corporate taxes, property taxes, and even utility rates,we have been identified in several studies as the most competitive -even in North America.” “I would say that adapting to the quickly changing economy,which is becoming a technological econ- omy, is the greatest challenge we face as a commu- nity,”Clark insists.“Automation is going to be a part of a city like ours. It is really important that we are creating the conditions for some of those knowl- edge-based and technology jobs.And we also need more manufacturing in order to keep adding value. We produce raw resources,whether in gas or lum- ber or agriculture, but we need to keep adding more value to that, so we are not just shipping the re- sources and then buying back the finished products from other places.That is a really key piece-making sure that we are as diversified as possible in our economy, here, so that if the price of potash, or oil, or uranium, drops,we are not so vulnerable.All three of those dropped in 2015, and it certainly created some challenges in our situation.” “So we like to say,”Clark concludes,“if you are the type of person who wants to push someone else out of the way or take credit for someone’s work, then you are probably not going to fit in Saskatoon. But, if you are the type of person who likes to work together in a collaborative way to solve the prob- lems of the world, then you are in the right place. And that is who we are inviting to our community.” PREFERRED VENDORS n Hamm Construction Ltd. www.hammconstruction.ca n Saskatoon Regional Economic Development Authority www.sreda.com
