Chrystia Freeland, the current Deputy Prime Minister of Canada, has had a significant impact on the country’s economy since taking on the role in late 2019. Freeland has been a vocal advocate for economic policies that prioritize the middle class and support economic growth. Her leadership has been especially crucial during the COVID-19 pandemic, where she has worked tirelessly to support businesses and Canadian families through government assistance programs.
One of the major policies that Freeland has championed is the push for fair and inclusive economic growth. She has advocated for policies that promote gender equality and diversity in the workplace, acknowledging the important role that marginalized communities play in the economy. Freeland has also been a strong supporter of the Canadian tech sector, recognizing its potential for job creation and economic growth. This focus on diversity and innovation has helped Canada remain competitive on the global stage.
Freeland’s leadership has also been instrumental in guiding Canada through the economic challenges brought on by the pandemic. She played a key role in negotiating with other levels of government and stakeholders to implement emergency support programs, such as the Canada Emergency Response Benefit and the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy. These programs helped provide financial relief to businesses and individuals affected by the pandemic and kept the economy afloat during a difficult time.
