The Canadian Chamber of Commerce extends its congratulations to Mark Carney on his election as Leader of the Liberal Party, and therefore Canada’s 24th Prime Minister-designate.
Canada is at an inflection point. Successfully navigating the increasingly uncertain and hostile international economic environment needs a unified and strategic approach to ensure Canada’s economic security and sovereignty.
As soon as Prime Minister-designate Carney assembles his Cabinet, we urge him and his party to focus on addressing the immediate domestic challenges holding Canada back from reaching our full potential. We need a multipartisan effort to make sure that Canada is an open and competitive place for business — that means updating existing infrastructure, reforming our tax and regulatory systems, expanding our export markets, and ensuring free trade between provinces and territories.
As the voice of businesses across the country, we remain committed to building a Canada of thriving business opportunity, a strong economy and our vision of a better life for all.
- Candace Laing, President and CEO, Canadian Chamber of Commerce
