Most Canadians would like to believe that when it comes to macroeconomic policies, Canada is a responsible nation. We have a long-term interest in global stability. We pay our bills on time and respect our international commitments. But in terms of macroeconomic policy, being a responsible nation in a turbulent and sometimes irresponsible world can be difficult. And we are entering a period when the costs of acting responsibly may be rising.

In this executive action, The Conference Board of Canada’s Senior Vice-President and Chief Economist Glen Hodgson examines the actions Canada can and should take in order to advance its own long-term economic interests while at the same time remaining a good global citizen.
