It's of critical importance to our members. Our members overwhelmingly agree that deficits harm our economic attractiveness and global competitiveness.
We applaud the government for the work it's done to reduce the federal deficit. After several years of admirable and disciplined restraint, the government is on track to balancing its budget.
We just would ask that you stay the course, and ensure that when you do return to a surplus, you redirect revenues towards projects that encourage economic growth in urban centres.
