Carney vows budget will spur 'unprecedented' investment, but warns of 'sacrifices'

OTTAWA - Prime Minister Mark Carney promised the nation Wednesday evening that the fall budget will spur unseen levels of private sector investments, but at the same time he warned that sacrifices are in store.

The prime minister said in a speech that the core of his government's strategy will be to spur "unprecedented" investments in Canada over the next five years, and the federal government has the “fiscal capacity to act decisively.”
