David Dodge appeared live on BNN Bloomberg to share his thoughts on the economic policies and promises on the agenda as the 2019 federal election campaign ramps up. These include:
- Canadian economic growth will be reasonable, but it's a time of uncertainty in international trade and geopolitics
- There isn't much discussion about competitiveness, deficits or debts in the election campaign—these should not be overlooked
- There's a discussion of where fiscal stimulus fits in right now at a time of continued low interest rates
- Government borrowing can be beneficial—if it improves the infrastructure that generates economic growth
