Canada’s Investor Summit: Why the Money Isn't Canada's Problem

Canada's investment summit is dangling a trillion dollars in front of the world, and journalist Matt Gurney says the real problem isn't the money, it's execution, the same kind you'd notice trying to book a contractor for a small job. The conversation turns to who actually gets tax breaks in this country, and why access to faster answers from the CRA seems to scale with the size of your bank account. One number he floats as an alternative goes back to how Canada used to fund entire wars. Matt Gurney also gets into what happened during his own five-hour hold with CRA, and the one old joke about government that he says still holds up better than anything currently coming out of Ottawa.
