Trudeau was much closer to the NDP (party of ideals) than the traditional LPC (broad tent party of power).

The resurgent NDP is evidence of that; the CPC has gone full NDP (party of ideals) rather than attempting to be a broad tent party of power.

Or a 90s PC.

I'd say 1980s... The PCs spent much of the 90s exiled - remember when a table for two at Hy's Steakhouse could accommodate the complete PC House of Commons caucus?

Whoa, big move.

Today, at the first Canada Investment Summit, Prime Minister Carney announced that the federal government is building on that success with the new Productivity Mega Deduction. This game-changing new tax incentive will increase the amount of assets covered from roughly 15% of assets to more than 65%, including fibre-optic cable, mining property, oil and gas pipelines, software, research and development, computer equipment, aircraft and vehicles, patents, rail track, bridges, and roads.

To reinforce Canada’s tax advantage, the federal government is also making immediate expensing permanent so businesses can recover these costs sooner. This will lower the after-tax cost of investing and boost capital investment across Canada. As a result, Canada’s marginal effective tax rate on new business investment will fall from roughly 13% to 6.4% – the lowest of any major economy in the world and less than half the rate in the United States.

I really like that its targeted at actual investment, like machinery and production equipment. I think we can all agree that this the kind of stuff we need to spur foreign investment and that good policy should be applauded.

More data centers physically inside Canada and better east-west connectivity both domestic and international, with less routing through the US.

New tax measures announced at PM’s investment summit will lower cost of building fibre-optic cables

As Mr. Carney’s government continues to seek alternatives to reduce dependence on the United States, calls have grown to develop more networking infrastructure that would avoid routing Canadian data through U.S. internet exchanges, thereby exposing that data to potential surveillance.

Researchers at the University of Toronto and York University studying the journey taken by data between two Canadian points have found that, among their data sets, about a quarter of those journeys routed through American interchanges, exposing that information to access by the U.S. National Security Agency.

Lots of risk with that.
