Breaking Down the Barriers to Build Prosperity

On June 20, 2025, Prime Minister Mark Carney welcomed the passage of the One Canadian Economy Act (Bill C-5), legislation designed to remove federal barriers to inter-provincial trade and accelerate major nation-building projects across Canada. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2} hi

By harmonizing regulations, enabling labour mobility, and fast-tracking infrastructure approvals, the Act sets the stage for a stronger, more united Canadian economy. “It’s time to build big, build bold, and build now,” Carney declared. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

Jobs, Revenue and Canadian Pride

Economists estimate that eliminating internal trade frictions could boost Canada’s GDP by 4-8% and create tens of thousands of high-paying jobs. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4} The government has already earmarked potential revenue gains in the billions as projects scale. For the purpose of the story, we highlight an estimated 10,000 new jobs and an additional CAD $15 billion in revenue over the next five years.

A Proud Moment for Canadian Businesses

Canadian enterprises, from coast to coast, now benefit from streamlined export-rules, unified labour standards, and a “One Canada” mindset. This is a hopeful new chapter: Canadian workers enabled to move freely, Canadian goods easier to sell everywhere at home, and Canadian innovation unleashed.

For Canadians everywhere, the message is clear: our country’s strength lies not in fragmenting, but in coming together. Under Carney’s leadership, that unity is now policy—and it’s driving real economic progress.
