Unhelpful But Not Totally Surprising: David Dodge On Budget 2024

David Dodge joins BNN Bloomberg to talk about his major takeaways from the recent federal budget. He says it is "unhelpful but not totally surprising" that the budget once again focuses on consumption instead of promoting investment to increase productivity, He says the capital gains tax increase will make Canada a less attractive place to invest and establish small start-ups. "That is the unfortunate thing, because it is only through innovative investment that we're going to raise our standards of living in the future," David says.
