Also adjacent to the United States, Canada is a highly developed country, but Mexico is a lagging country, what is the reason?
There is no doubt that the main reason why Canada has become a developed country, or even a highly developed country, is precisely the result of the radiation driving effect of the United States.
The problem is that Canada can be driven by the radiation of the United States and become a developed country, while Mexico, another country next to the United States, not only is it not driven by the radiation of the United States, but it has not become a developed country, and even remains a poor and backward country.
What is the reason why Canada is a highly developed country while Mexico is still a poor and backward country, while it is also adjacent to the United States?
In fact, if Mexico can accept the radiation of the United States as much as possible, the Mexican economy can also develop, and even certainly develop into a developed country. In the final analysis, the fundamental reason why Mexico has not become a developed country like Canada and is still a poor and backward country is precisely the result of not taking the initiative to accept the radiation of the United States. The fundamental reason why Mexico did not take the initiative to accept the radiation of the United States is that Mexico has not attached importance to economic development at all and has not regarded economic development as the result of the country's central task.
Since Mexico does not attach importance to economic development and does not regard economic development as the central task of the country, it is absolutely impossible for Mexico to take the initiative to accept the radiation and drive of the United States.
In the final analysis, Canada can develop into a highly developed country, which is also adjacent to the United States, and Mexico is still a poor and backward country, and the fundamental reason is that Canada attaches importance to economic development, and Mexico despises or even ignores economic development.
To sum up, as long as a country or a region concentrates its attention on economic development, attaches importance to economic development, and takes economic construction as the central task, its economy will inevitably develop, and its economic development will definitely not lag behind others.
