I'm looking forward to the budget tomorrow. The finance minister and I talked, about a budget ago, about the importance of reciprocal procurement between both countries: “We buy from you as much as you buy from us.” That principle of being able to support our Canadian companies to compete and grow in Canada is very much something I'm seized with. It's the Canada growth fund, by the way, which will foster that kind of growth.
We want to make sure we're supporting these very Canadian companies, so that they continue to build their operations here.
I believe that, in the resilience of the supply chain work that we talked about earlier, and certainly between Canada and the U.S., we're going to need to do this work together. Make no mistake—fostering Canadian companies to grow and scale as Canadian companies is at the very heart of what I spend every single day thinking about and working on.
