I emailed Goldy Hyder, the CEO of the Business Council of Canada, to ask what he made of Freeland’s remarks. He said Freeland’s remarks don’t represent a break from the government’s actions in the recent past, but that they imply a test of its resolve in the near future. “Freeland’s speech was significant and important. You’re right in thinking we’ve only heard words so far and that Government needs to honour its commitments. As I told James McCarten in Washington yesterday, the real test is whether we convert these good intentions into actions. That’s what we’ll be judged by — can we build the infrastructure and deliver the goods on an expedited basis? That is the crucial question for Canada now.
