Foreign investment surges to Canada’s strongest level since 2007

Foreign direct investment into Canada jumped in the fourth quarter, pushing yearly inflows to the highest level in 18 years. Read here now

There’s a major distinction between Foreign Direct Investment in Canada that packs up and leaves Canada, and capital outflow from Canadian capital being invested overseas. The former is indeed a sign of Canada becoming a less attractive investment climate… The increased FDI capital inflows recently reported by StatCan suggests those concerns have decreased.

The latter is Canadians deploying their capital to invest in (buy) foreign assets. Canadians buying up stakes in foreign businesses is difficult to articulate as a bad thing. It’s not money flowing out of Canada with no benefit; it’s Canadians geographically diversifying investments with ownerships takes in overseas ventures.

What about Canadians buying up portions of foreign businesses worries you?

Your eager to come at me, fair enough, I don't mind.

Lets deal in some numbers,

$1-trillion gap between Canadian direct investment abroad and foreign direct investment (FDI) in Canada as of 2024

$1 Trillion is a lot of money.

Lets talk tangible results. Canadians don't give a flying F*ck about "statistical data" that says X or Y. Yeah stats matter but needs context. Now, I speak for people affected (not me directly but I have friends and family who are). NO ONE cares about a news article like this when they work 2-3 jobs, can't feed their families, visit food banks, struggle to pay rent, borrow money for gas so they can go to work (Not every Canadian has public transportation available), hopes to make the electrical bill, etc.

Bottom line, the Liberal government has failed miserably. Again and again.
