Economic Strategy
Sound fiscal policy, investments to enhance growth and productivity, and competitive tax rates are fundamental to success in the global economy.
Responsible and effective policies help Canada attract people and investment, enable companies to grow and create jobs, and allow families to build better lives for themselves and for their children.
Areas of focus include:
Jobs and Growth
Enabling a competitive environment that delivers economic growth and high-value jobs to Canadians from coast to coast to coast.
Public Finances
Federal and provincial budgets that invest responsibly in people and growth-enabling initiatives.
Taxation
Modernizing and simplifying Canada’s overly complex, inefficient, and dated tax system.
Powering a strong recovery
The world is changing rapidly and it is time to adopt a bold new economic vision and growth strategy.
