What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A draft Productivity Mega Deduction was announced, offering significant tax breaks to the Canadian energy sector. The analysis noted that this was a notable improvement over previous proposals and aimed to enhance investment competitiveness in Canada. The enhanced deductions are designed to improve project returns, increase near-term free cash flow, and lower the after-tax cost of growth capital for producers.
