Globe says BCE chairman Nixon urges action from Carney

2025-04-30 07:16 ET - In the News

The Globe and Mail reports in its Wednesday edition that Canada's business leaders see a window of opportunity for Prime Minister Mark Carney to push through big changes for Canada's economy while voters are unusually united about the key issues confronting the country -- but they want to see quick results. The Globe's James Bradshaw and Mark Rendell write that top executives shared disappointment that the election did not result in a clear majority government for either party, which would have promised greater stability. However, that was tempered by optimism that even with a minority Parliament, Mr. Carney may enter the job with a mandate that is stronger than it seems. The issues include diversifying trade, speeding up resource project approvals, and building more housing and trade infrastructure, including pipelines. Mr. Carney will have to act boldly. "The country and the Liberal and Conservative parties are aligned on 80 per cent of the issues. Both parties should work together to move forward with respect to dealing with the major issue ahead," BCE chair Gord Nixon and former RBC chief executive officer, told The Globe. "I think Prime Minister Carney will govern as if he has a majority, until he can't."
