Quick 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.

Quick Glance: Trudeau Urges Improvement in Housing Construction in Canada
- Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is putting pressure on the provinces to remove barriers in housing construction, urging them to freeze municipal development costs and allow up to four units on each property.
- Trudeau announced that his government will allocate new infrastructure funds of C$5 billion ($3.7 billion) to the provinces, provided they sign an agreement by January 1, 2025, to implement specific reforms for increased housing supply.
- Additionally, Trudeau revealed that federal transit funds will be linked to municipal regulations, including the removal of minimum parking requirements near mass transit lines and the approval of high-density housing near transit and post-secondary institutions.
- To access the federal funds, provinces must agree to 'key measures', such as approving four units without further delay, implementing a three-year freeze on the increase in development costs in larger cities, and introducing changes to the national building code to support more housing options.

China tried to meddle but Canadians decided the last two elections, says PM Trudeau
reut.rs/49NfyOJ
Quick Glance: Alleged Chinese Interference in Canadian Elections: Trudeau Confirms Independence
- Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau reported to an official inquiry that China attempted to intervene in the last two Canadian elections, but the outcomes were unaffected, and it was deemed 'improbable' that Beijing favored a specific party.
- Under pressure from opposition lawmakers dissatisfied with media reports on China's potential involvement in the elections, Trudeau established the commission.
- Erin O'Toole, who led the main opposition Conservative party during the 2021 campaign, estimated that Chinese interventions may have cost his party up to nine seats but did not alter the election's course. Trudeau's Liberal Party emerged victorious in both instances.
- Canada's domestic intelligence agency informed the commission of China's 'clandestine and deceptive' interference in both elections, marking the most substantial evidence thus far of suspected Chinese meddling in Canadian politics.

Quick Glance: Canada's Ambitious Housing Plan to Address Crisis
- Canada plans to build nearly 3.9 million houses by 2031 under a new federal initiative to tackle the housing crisis.
- The plan, falling short by almost a third compared to projections, is expected to dominate the upcoming federal budget.
- With no direct role in construction, Ottawa must rely on policy measures and funding to ensure partners respond to the housing shortage.
- The measures include proposals to extend low-cost loans, utilize federal land for rapid house construction, and combat mortgage fraud inflating housing costs.
