Whenever various groups have common interests, it may make sense for them to collaborate and co-operate, and pretending that collaboration and co-operation mean communism (if I understand your cryptic reference correctly), just makes you sound like a crazy person.
I don't know what that means or how the existence of international organizations relates making our region seem more appealing to other regions to attract investment. Collaboration is great, but so is individualism and autonomy. Our region should have the capacity to make its own choices and choose its own direction without having to worry about whether or not they align with those in Alliston or Windsor.
We can and must collaborate, but we also need to compete with one another.
