Ottawa – Members of the media are invited to join the first in a series of Policy Options events on key issues that could — or should — be part of the debate in the 2019 federal election.
The first event in this breakfast series, held in partnership with the Max Bell School of Public Policy, will focus on how to improve Canada’s tax system. The Fall Economic Update contained a handful of tax measures designed to keep our businesses competitive with those of the United States. But what about the many other aspects of our tax system that might also need to be changed? For example, is it adequately addressing the changes occurring in the economy, in society? How does our system compare with those of other countries? Are there ways to make it less complex?

Jennifer Ditchburn, Editor-in-Chief of Policy Options, will moderate the discussion.
