“This bill gives businesses a big tax deduction so they can get more money to invest. The Bank of Canada says it helps, especially when our trade with the United States is uncertain. I want to know what my colleague thinks about this.”
“Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague, whose speech I enjoyed a great deal. The recent monetary policy report clearly shows that the Governor of the Bank of Canada, in his analyses, uses the mega deduction provided in the bill as an example. The mega deduction will give businesses greater access to capital and enable them to make additional investments at a time of uncertainty in our relationship with our neighbours to the south. This mega deduction is worth highlighting; it is a Canadian monetary policy with a significant impact on our businesses and on investment. I would like to hear my colleague’s thoughts on that.”
