MEI – Here’s what we should do to help entrepreneurs in Canada – Emmanuelle B. Faubert

Entrepreneurship in Canada is in clear decline, with fewer new businesses being created and a shrinking share of self-employed workers. As marginal tax rates exceed 50% in some provinces, and regulatory costs continue to rise, the incentives to take risks and grow a business are being eroded. If we want stronger growth, job creation, and higher living standards, we need a more competitive, pro-entrepreneurship environment.
