I think the two threats I'm hearing most from businesses are concerns about labour mobility in terms of retirement funds being applicable across provinces, and how that would affect business operations. Any business that operates in Ottawa and Gatineau can tell you that moving employees across the border, even temporarily, is a tax nightmare and not necessarily worth the squeeze.
I take note from the absence of any mention in the throne speech and from the desire to not push forward to a referendum until a firm, final number is apparent and clear and decided upon, that there will be very little progress on this in the near future, which I think is something we're grateful for. Again, uncertainty in the business investing environment across provinces is not something that the Canadian Chamber of Commerce ever advocates for.
