The Globe and Mail reports in its Wednesday edition that federal cabinet ministers will fan out across the country in the days ahead to reassure companies of support they can access during the escalating Canada-U.S. trade war. The Globe's Steven Chase reports that meanwhile, Prime Minister Mark Carney's focus is on attracting investment and stimulating economic growth. Industry Minister Mélanie Joly and Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne will step up a media blitz, including meetings with businesses and chambers of commerce. This will involve guiding companies through the process of applying for support. Mr. Carney's priorities include affordable housing, new infrastructure and next week's federal investment summit to attract foreign capital to Canada, as well as this fall's federal budget. The coming budget will introduce measures to boost Canada's economic attractiveness. Mr. Carney met with Quebec business leaders Tuesday to discuss the Canada-U.S. trade war and talk about how to boost growth and investment in this country, the Prime Minister's Office said. It listed 20 companies that attended, including Power Corp. of Canada, Desjardins Group, Saputo, Metro, Intact Financial and Lightspeed Commerce.
