Gov is looking for ideas for economic growth

[GLG]

The finance department is looking for ideas on how to create jobs and stimulate the local economy. They are especially looking for ways that don’t cost money.

What cost-neutral or non-spending steps can the federal government take in the next budget to help create jobs and promote economic growth?

Perhaps if we tell them we need a change in halibut allocation policy we could get the economist’s to weigh in on the debate. After all, you can’t argue the point that a pound of halibut caught by a sport fisherman brings more money to the local economy than a pound of halibut caught by a commercial fisherman.

I encourage everyone to go to this website and fill out the form and submit to the finance department, it only takes a minute.

Done,

A chance to comment, and hopefully the finance department has not been trained to have deaf ears the same as DFO in Ottawa.

Done. More people should do this.
