Establish the Invest in Canada Agency.

What success looks like

Canada is positioned to attract more global investment, creating well-paying, middle-class jobs by making it simpler and faster for businesses to invest in Canada.

Government's narrative on progress

The government launched the Invest in Canada Agency in March 2018. This agency helps bring together all levels of government to provide seamless service to global investors navigating Canada’s investment landscape. Increased foreign investment in Canada connects Canadian industries to global value chains and facilitates the transfer of knowledge and technology, increasing competitiveness, stimulating innovation, and promoting the prosperity of Canadians. To encourage foreign investment in Canada, the government is also increasing the number of investment-focused trade commissioners across key global markets.

Note: this is the government's own description, not an independent assessment.
