Department of Finance Canada News Announcement

  • Sovereign Wealth Fund

  • being created with a deficit, even if it’s shrinking

  • potential pool for foreign/private investors

    • but retail investors can participate
  • helps diversify assets/economy

  • planning to leverage public infrastructure?

    • could be, in essence, privatizing crown corps, which I don’t love
  • planned to be used, in part, for major projects

    • Question: Is this a part of the MPO? Directly or indirectly
  • could lead to extra revenue while flattening the economy

  • then again, maybe a surplus isn’t needed?
