Budget 2024

Tax and spend fiscal plan will inhibit growth

Robert Asselin believes that being fiscally prudent is vital during these perilous economic times. He shares his perspective in an article by the Canadian Press about Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland’s announcement of a date for the fall fiscal update.  

“The focus now should be on fiscal prudence to ensure the central bank can bring inflation back to its mandated target range.”
