"Quantum computers will be exponentially faster and more powerful than classical computers."
This isn't necessarily true. Yes, in some areas but for others quantum computers will be inferior to classic computers including, like, computing (i.e. arithmetic, database searches etc).
While I agree we could be a leader in this sphere, based on Canada’s previous historical performance in all other areas of national security and economics, the likelihood that our Canadian government will either:
Well, maybe, but as far as I can see, quantum computing isn't remotely close to being ready for prime time so I don't think we should be getting our shorts in a knot just yet.

Singularity is coming. Nothing to worry about.

1) act quickly or
2) procure technology from a Canadian supplier
Is zero, IMO.
