Mr. Zed called on the Harper government to specifically address the themes outlined in the report, and in particular calls on the government to work with the provinces to implement the Conference Board’s recommendations that:
- Provincial and federal governments increase their investments in affordable housing in Canada’s major cities.
- All levels of government incorporate the improvement of the accessibility and efficiency of airports, rail and other methods of inter-city transport into infrastructure development plans.
- All levels of government use fiscal tools, such as charging higher wastewater disposal fees and solid waste tipping fees, to support environmentally sound practices.
- The federal and provincial governments undertake full feasibility studies for high-speed rail transit in both the Windsor–Québec City and Calgary–Edmonton corridors; and quantify the socio-economic benefits and costs for each project to determine the requisite level of government support.
