Mark Carney Delivers Federal Budget with Tax and Economic Measures
The latest in this situation
How it started
What happened
Prime Minister Mark Carney delivered his second federal budget on November 5, 2026. The budget outlines measures aimed at bolstering the economy, improving affordability, and reducing Canada’s reliance on the US. Among the proposals are changes to the tax system for individuals earning business income.
Why it matters
The budget introduces a proposal allowing individuals whose primary income is from a business to pay a single installment payment each year instead of quarterly payments. This single payment, which would equal two-thirds of their combined federal-provincial net tax owing, would be due on December 31, starting in the 2028 tax year.
