Robert Asselin highlights that Canada needs to be strategic in how it allocates new growth funds and projects. His perspective along with Goldy Hyder’s letter to Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland were cited in an article by Bloomberg about Canada’s response to the green technology incentives in the U.S Inflation Reduction Act.

“The question is more about focusing and purposing the money where it is really needed, as opposed to spreading it around with no real focus.”
