  • Economic growth per worker depends crucially on two factors: innovations adopted by entrepreneurs and investment. The 2017 federal budget is rightly focused on innovation.

Finance Minister Bill Morneau, pictured March 22, 2017. The 2017 budget wisely avoided raising capital gains taxes. With potential U.S. tax, trade and regulatory reforms in 2017, it will likely be the case that the next budget will have more meaningful impact on innovation by reducing regulatory and tax barriers in Canada, not raise them. Let’s hope that will be the case. The Hill Times photograph by Jake Wright
