Commercial Banking SVP Drew Lear talks the state of the current economy. Despite a 3.3% GDP, a softer labor market, inflation near 3%, weaker spending and tariffs still weigh on growth.

Shutdown Economics

Prime Minister Mark Carney's pledge to increase Canadian defence spending to two per cent of GDP could present considerable economic opportunities for Ottawa-based companies.

The multi-billion dollar commitment goes beyond reinvigorating Canada’s Armed Forces; the Prime Minister aims to use military spending to bolster industrial policy, extending into high-growth areas like AI, cybersecurity, quantum computing and R&D.

In this episode of Techopia Live, Ottawa Business Journal publisher Michael Curran speaks with Brian Kells, an associate lawyer with Perley-Robertson, Hill & McDougall LLP, who specializes in business law. Kells, who served in Canada’s infantry for nearly 15 years, including time in Afghanistan, reflects on the economic potential of new defence procurement and what entrepreneurs should consider when contemplating doing business with the military.

The podcast dissects the new defence policy and identifies the specific business openings created by this massive modernization effort. This is essential viewing for Ottawa entrepreneurs and tech leaders seeking to understand how their companies can capitalize on the biggest defence tech boom in Canadian history.

A minimálbér 11, a garantált bérminimum pedig 7 százalékkal nő 2026-tól, a nyár óta lebegtetett alacsonyabb szocho azonban végül lekerült a napirendről. Bár a munkáltatók és a szakszervezetek is számítottak az 1 százalékos csökkentésre, a kormány szerint a költségvetésben jelenleg nem áll rendelkezésre elegendő forrás, ami ellensúlyozná az így kieső 200 milliárd forintot. A vállalkozásoknak egyelőre be kell érniük a nemrég bejelentett 11 pontos gazdaságélénkítő csomaggal.
