New report calls for a Defence Industrial Base Strategy that drives prosperity

Business confidence is the best stimulus

In an interview with BNN Bloomberg about our pre-budget letter to Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, Goldy Hyder shared his perspective on why the federal government must resist the urge to raise taxes and instead focus on long-term growth. He emphasized our seven key recommendations for growing the economy and increasing prosperity for all.

“The best stimulus at this time is business confidence. If we’re able to create the conditions for business investment and for growth and productivity improvements, that results in hiring.”
