Statement on New Cabinet
With new leadership comes fresh opportunity—but also immediate responsibility. That is why the day after the election we sent Prime Minister Carney a detailed letter outlining what Canada’s business leaders believe should be the top priorities for this new cabinet, government, and Parliament in the coming weeks.
The government must demonstrate ambition and action in its campaign commitments to accelerate approvals for trade-enabling infrastructure projects, eliminate interprovincial trade barriers, ignite engines of growth and innovation, and, most importantly, adopt a responsible fiscal framework.
Moreover, as the clock ticks toward the mandatory review of the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement, we urge the federal government to move quickly to prepare for this critical process, which will have far-reaching implications for Canadian workers and families, investment, and long-term prosperity.
Canada’s business community stands ready to support the government in building a stronger, more competitive Canada and advancing a united Canadian voice on the global stage.
