Now, he said, younger indus- trialists are not willing to take "no" for an answer "and we believe Canada will take as lleading a role in world industry as any other member of the western community." Mr. Munk dated the new dynamic attitude in Canadian industry from 1955. He praised government meas- ures for encouraging industry, such as those in the credit and tax-incentive field. Mr. Munk, whose company in about three years has become a Canadian success story in high - fidelity products in both home and export markets, said the Canadian change has been one of "mind". "In almost any field Cana- dians can produce industrial de- sign on a par or superior to any existing," he said.
