-- 羅森伯格研究公司週三表示,“或許是時候對加拿大進行正面重新評估了”,但該公司希望先觀察加拿大自由黨執政下的經濟走向,因為“我們之前對該黨的財政政策感到失望”。 羅森伯格研究公司補充說,該公司祈禱在總理馬克·卡尼的領導下,自由黨在議會佔多數席位後,能夠推行親商政策。 研究指出,加拿大剛經歷了「微妙但可能具有顛覆性的政治轉變」。週一,自由黨在加拿大三個選區的補選中大獲全勝,加上近期五名來自保守黨和新民主黨的議員倒戈,自由黨已獲得足夠的席位,從而確保了其在議會的正式多數席位。 研究指出,這不僅僅意味著立法程序將變得更加容易,更重要的是,自由黨現在將控制下議院所有委員會的多數席位,“這一點極其重要”,因為反對黨能夠通過投票否決政府,從而修改法案、發起調查和拖延立法的時代“如今已然結束”。 研究稱,這使得馬克卡尼總理的政府能夠加速推進一些與自然資源開發和管道擴建相關的積極經濟政策。研究也指出,關鍵問題在於卡尼會採取怎樣的政策。 「他會推行親商政策,還是會向左翼靠攏?」研究問道。 “讓我們祈禱他採取前者,”研究最後說道,“他不必再向特殊利益集團或左翼政黨低頭,這只有好處。” 研究指出,從本質上講,多數黨地位賦予卡尼更大的“優勢”,使其能夠更快地推進能源放鬆管制和許可改革法案,打破省際壁壘,改善國防採購,促進國際貿易,建設基礎設施,並實施其他有利於經濟增長的優先事項。 此外,研究也指出,從長期成長前景來看,多數黨地位也有利於自由黨避免與較小的左翼政黨(如綠黨、新民主黨或魁北克集團)進行私下交易。研究補充說,這是前總理賈斯汀·杜魯道在2019年至2024年領導的少數政府的特點,並導致政府施加政治壓力,推行更高的財政赤字和阻礙經濟成長的政策。 記下來
