Paid articlePaidQuick Glance: Macklem Sees Limited Impact of Canada Budget on Fiscal Direction
- Bank of Canada Governor Tiff Macklem suggested Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s recent budget, which balanced increased spending with a capital gains tax hike and improved revenue forecasts, did not significantly contribute to inflationary pressures.
- Macklem informed reporters on Friday that the budget did not alter the government's fiscal trajectory significantly compared to the November fiscal update. It was highlighted that Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland upheld her commitment regarding deficit maintenance and shortfall reduction goals for the future.
- The Governor emphasized the continued adherence of the budget to these guidelines, which was deemed beneficial. He refrained from delving into specific details of budget measures, emphasizing the responsibility of lawmakers to deliberate on the government's fiscal plan.
- Macklem expressed that the latest three inflation indicators showed a sustained downward trend, with the bank awaiting confirmation that this trend will persist to ensure the progress towards price stability is maintained.
