Hosted by the North Capital Forum

North America is at a defining moment for how Mexico, the United States, and Canada compete as one region. Advanced manufacturing is central to that project, and a test of whether Canada remains at the industrial center of North America.

In this fireside chat, NCF26 Co-Chair Linda Hasenfratz, Executive Chair of the Board of Linamar Corporation, joins Dr. Luis de la Calle to discuss how Canadian industry has advanced the North American project from the factory floor. Drawing on Linamar’s work as a diversified advanced manufacturing company, the conversation will look at how industrial leadership can deepen cross-border production, expand what the region builds together, and keep Canada as a central axis of an industry that powers mobility, work, and growth across North America.
