Feds announce summit to spark Canadian economy

The federal government announced today that it will hold a Canada-US Economic Summit on Feb. 7.

The summit will bring together Canadian leaders in trade, business, public policy and organized labour. Their aim will be to make it easier to build and trade within Canada — the ninth-largest economy in the world — as well as to diversify export markets and increase productivity.

“These are all areas our Chamber network has been calling for and we will keep calling for until this investment in our communities is realized,” Chamber CEO Bruce Williams said.
