The Productivity Blueprint highlights policies that can help Canadians contribute and thrive in a changing labour market. Improving productivity means making better use of the skills Canadians already possess, not asking them to work longer or harder. cdhowe.org/human-capital/

Has Canada tried all the policy fixes to improve productivity and failed?
I don’t think so.
While policymakers of all stripes have made big moves, some productivity drivers have worsened or gone unaddressed.

Stronger competition helps firms innovate, improve efficiency, and lower costs. See how the Productivity Blueprint can help strengthen Canada's long-term economic growth.

GDP per capita is a key measure of living standards, and Canada’s performance is directly tied to productivity. With mounting external pressures and years of underperformance, boosting productivity and investment is more urgent than ever.
Canada's regulatory system has grown more complex, creating barriers to investment, labour mobility, and economic growth. The Productivity Blueprint looks at how governments can reduce unnecessary barriers while maintaining strong public protections.
