Description

Prime Minister Mark Carney announced new details on Monday about his government's 'Buy Canadian' policy to ensure federal dollars are spent on Canadian suppliers — but in the process, also revealed that the second batch of projects selected for fast tracking through the Major Projects Office will be announced on Thursday. Industry Minister Mélanie Joly explains how her government is trying to strike a balance between supporting businesses with federal dollars and delaying projects with higher costs and longer wait times. Then, after meeting with her fellow premiers, New Brunswick Premier Susan Holt discusses her reaction to the budget and what she wants to see on the major projects list.
