C&C #4: Canada Day is Now Deadline Day

C&C #4: Canada Day is Now Deadline Day

Three deadlines hit on Canada Day — and two of them land on every builder in BC and Alberta. Jordan Bateman breaks down the news that matters to the people who build British Columbia and Alberta.

In this episode:

  • Alberta's million-barrel-a-day pipeline proposal is due July 1 at the federal Major Projects Office. Smith and Carney say they want to "get to yes" — the holdup runs through David Eby's BC.
  • The CUSMA trade review opens the same day. ICBA Chief Economist Jock Finlayson's Mid-Year Update warns Canada is in — or on the cusp of — recession.
  • The condo bailout: Pierre Poilievre asks the Commons ethics committee to investigate Ottawa and Victoria's plan to buy 2,200 unsold BC condos.
