The Yorkton Chamber of Commerce is sounding the alarm. Canada’s economic fabric, they say, is in danger, and you should be sounding the alarm, too.
The impact of the West’s inability to get energy resources to global markets, combined with tensions between provinces producing resources and others that do not are compounding the problem, according to the Chamber.
“Canada’s economic well-being is at risk, in addition to political and regional tensions straining the unity of our country,” said Mike Stackhouse, President of the Chamber of Commerce.
A key step to bolster Saskatchewan’s economy is the pipeline to tidewater as well as the ability to access markets worldwide.
“The first priority,” said Juanita Polegi, Executive Director, “is to fix Bill C-69.
“The government also needs to implement the regulatory changes promised in the Fall Economic update and make immediate plans to get our resources to tide water. Canadians have had enough of the talk. We want to see real, concrete actions.”
The Chamber says there is enormous demand for Canadian energy products and Canada is squandering the opportunity to put more money in the pockets of every single Canadian as well as fighting climate change at the same time because of endless political bickering.
