## Resource

In this paid subscriber-only edition of The Roundtable, Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer analyze the Carney government's investment summit and European diplomatic overtures. They critique the summit's "Laurentian capitalism" approach—where government acts as matchmaker for private capital—while praising accompanying policy reforms like permanent capital expensing and airport privatization. The discussion examines tensions between fiscal discipline and ambitious spending, questions Canada's proposed European integration, and explores growing speculation about a snap federal election. They debate whether Carney's recent initiatives reflect genuine economic reform or political positioning ahead of a potential early campaign.
