I'm not sure I follow... So:

> Humans get energy from high intensity tasks / work

> Humans have innovated out of high intensity work which offered more opportunities for cultural and social connection

> Humans are losing energy because we don't do high intensity tasks / work anymore

Is that right?

Love this in theory.

But...

There's still way more money being invested in the traditional world of advertising than what's being invested in the analytics and data side. Creative agencies haven't gone away. Agencies of Record are still the traditional shops (DDB, Ogilvy, etc.)

This isn't that surprising when you break it down.

While it's rarely thought about or discussed - Toronto isn't a small little town in Canada. It's the 4th largest city in North America. Bigger than Chicago, Houston and Philadelphia.

Combine that with the fact that the Canadian dollar is weak and you've got the perfect match for tech companies.
