The lack of fiscal accountability demonstrated in today's Fall Economic Statement (FES), combined with a government in total disarray, creates profound instability for Canadian businesses and families at a time when we need the opposite. Canada’s business community is deeply concerned by the government’s lack of a clear, robust plan to tackle the expanding deficit and revive economic prosperity. Any business owner knows the dangers of staying in the red year after year. Any homeowner knows that mortgages shouldn’t get bigger over time. In a new statement, our President and CEO, Candace Laing, emphasizes the need for Canada to prepare for the challenges ahead, particularly in light of Trump’s tariff threats. "This is the number one issue facing Canadian businesses — it endangers our economic stability, jeopardizes our jobs, and undermines our global competitiveness."
