Economic growth platforms

Here's what the 2024 Nova Scotia election parties are promising.
We don't have any PC policies on Economic growth.

Liberal

  • Invest $300M over four years to encourage economic development and infrastructure in the Cape Breton Regional Municipality

    "A Nova Scotia Liberal government will invest $300M over four years to spur economic development and infrastructure growth in the Cape Breton Regional Municipality. This funding will be used to address the following:

    1. Improving the CBRM’s infrastructure,
    2. Growing the CBRM’s economy,
    3. Improving opportunities for CBRM workers,
    4. Alleviating the CBRM’s housing crisis,
    5. Improving transit in CBRM, and
    6. Building capital projects that will have a long-term impact on Cape Breton.

    We will also commit to one-on-one negotiations with the CBRM regarding a CBRM municipal charter, which takes into account their unique economic, social, and equalization circumstances."
