Ottawa should recommit to debt-to-GDP anchor, IMF report says

OTTAWA - A new report by the International Monetary Fund pushes the federal government to recommit to an old fiscal anchor.

The report, released Friday as part of the IMF's regular review of the Canadian economy, said the federal government's budget tabled Nov. 4 rightly pivots toward higher public investment as U.S. tariffs and shifting trade ties hamper the economy.
