OEA/CABE Webinar: Post Budget Discussion with Julie Turcotte

 

Budget 2026 sets out the government’s plan to build a stronger, more independent and more resilient Canadian economy in a rapidly changing world, while making life more affordable for Canadians.

Building on Canada’s strengths, the Budget advances an ambitious growth agenda to accelerate investment, boost productivity and strengthen Canada’s long-term growth potential. It includes measures to attract and mobilize private capital, get major projects built faster, strengthen competition, and build the infrastructure needed for a stronger economy, while also helping Canadians with the cost of living and housing.

This event will explore the economic and fiscal outlook underpinning Budget 2026, the broader economic context in which it was developed, and the key policy choices behind the government’s growth and investment agenda.
