Our new paper, Complacency to Competitiveness: A Blueprint for Canada’s Economic Future, offers guiding insights to build a more competitive economy, unlock investment, and spur economic growth. We are advocating for ambitious pro-business policies across three priority areas:
- A tax and regulatory environment that attracts capital, rather than chase it away
- Smarter trade strategies that reduce over-reliance on the U.S.
- A renewed commitment to nation-building—housing, infrastructure, and talent
Productivity, competitiveness and Canada’s role on the global stage is top of mind for many as we navigate ongoing trade uncertainty with the United States.
Despite persistent challenges facing our economy, both government and business leaders have often avoided meaningful action. For too long, we’ve relied on our natural advantages – like our proximity to the US and abundant resources – to get by.
It’s time for productivity and competitiveness to take centre stage. Read the paper below to gain insight into the actions government and business can take to right the ship.
