Given that the Governor of the Bank of Canada refused to answer questions regarding the job killing capital gains tax hike and its impact on the economy, that given it is the mandate of the Bank of Canada “to promote the economic and financial welfare of Canada,” and given that the committee heard that this tax hike will further harm the economy, the committee call the Governor of the Bank of Canada to return to answer questions on the economic impact of the capital gains tax hike and that his testimony be included in the Pre-Budget Consultation Report.
