Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat
The Government of Canada is taking a whole-of-government approach to strengthen our economy and reduce the cost of living for Canadians. In doing so, we must continue to work with all partners to increase productivity and remove regulatory barriers so businesses and our economy can thrive.
As part of these efforts, the Honourable Anita Anand, President of Treasury Board will immediately set up a working group to examine productivity and inform the government’s economic plan. The working group will address barriers to achieving greater efficiencies for businesses so we can help increase productivity across the country.
As announced in Budget 2024, the Government of Canada will continue its efforts to enable innovation and reduce red tape by introducing amendments to the Red Tape Reduction Act to broaden the use of regulatory sandboxes and continue advancing Bill S-6 through Parliament.
In addition, Minister Anand and the Honourable Dominic LeBlanc, Minister of Public Safety, Democratic Institutions and Intergovernmental Affairs are taking steps to remove barriers to interprovincial trade.
On September 26, 2024, Ministers Anand and LeBlanc will be meeting with federal, provincial, and territorial (FPT) ministers of the Committee on Internal Trade (CIT) to continue working with governments to decrease the costs of goods and services for Canadians and allow the freer movement of labour in this country. This will kick off a stronger and swifter approach with FPT ministers to support interprovincial trade and reduce red tape.
To further support Canadian industry, Minister Anand will travel to Washington, D.C., on September 4, 2024, to advance the work of the Canada-US Regulatory Cooperation Council
