Mobilisation de capitaux privés pour financer la croissance propre du Canada
Summary
The report recommends a strategic approach to clean growth in Canada, emphasizing the use of public funds to correct market failures rather than simply matching US subsidies. Key recommendations include extending the carbon pricing schedule beyond 2030, implementing carbon contracts for difference, and ensuring the Canada Growth Fund operates with political independence and a mandate for Indigenous-led projects.
Key insights
- Canada does not need to match the subsidies and incentives of the US Inflation Reduction Act to remain competitive; instead, it should use public funds strategically to attract private investors.
- Public funding should be targeted at correcting market and policy failures to avoid over-subsidizing projects that would be economically viable without government support.
- A critical first step for Canada is to communicate the carbon pricing schedule beyond 2030 and consider the use of carbon contracts for difference.
- The Canada Growth Fund should utilize instruments that limit public risk exposure, reserving high-exposure instruments for a small number of high-risk, high-reward projects, and should incorporate clear exit strategies once projects become profitable.
- To ensure effectiveness and economic reconciliation, the Canada Growth Fund's investment portfolio must require a minimum share of projects where Indigenous participation is majority.
