What happened

Well supportedReported by 18 independent outlets

The Government of Canada announced several initiatives aimed at stimulating investment during the Canada Investment Summit in Toronto. The government is proposing a Productivity Mega Deduction that allows businesses to immediately expense most new capital investment acquired from September 15. This deduction applies to investments in fibre and other network infrastructure, with about two-thirds of capital investment qualifying. The government also plans a national broadband backbone across the country with international connections to Europe and Asia, funded partly by attracting private capital.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The initiatives represent a broader federal push to expand infrastructure under Canadian control. The government is also considering long-term concessions for private investment in Canada’s four largest airports, which could raise tens of billions of dollars. The federal contribution to the national broadband backbone would come as Ottawa seeks private capital for the project.
