Jason and Davey explore the lack of innovation and risk-taking culture in Canada, particularly compared to other countries like the United States, Israel, and South Korea. They discuss how Canadians are more comfortable with the status quo and less inclined to take risks or invest in innovative ideas. They also touch on the cultural mindset of Canadians, the role of government in fostering innovation, and the need for recognition and rewards for innovation. The conversation highlights the importance of creating a culture that encourages and rewards innovation to drive growth and competitiveness and highlights the value of exploration, essentialism, and making informed decisions.
