    In part III, Gratton speaks to the positive affects of the five forces on one's lives. Demographics are mentioned. As mandatory retirement has been abolished in many jurisdictions, the changing demographics of workers living longer and thus having the ability to work longer may have positive and negative effects. This link is a survey of UK firms on the impact of mandatory retirement and the specific qualitative issues that may arise, such as enhancing customer service and employee performance, as well as the difficulties including less 'headroom' for younger workers and performance decline

      It is interesting to note that Canada's ecological footprint has stayed fairly constant over the time period depicted, however the biocapacity has fallen dramatically. This organization stated on the previous page that "... countries and regions with surplus ecological reserves-not the ones relying on continued ecological deficit spending-will emerge as the robust and sustainable economies and societies of the future." Based on this, it would seem that with careful ecosystem management, Canada could become one of these "robust and sustainable" economies, particularly in comparison to others such as the USA, UK and China which have already surpassed their biocapacity.
