1. It might be *somewhat correct but... it didn't really work out for the conservatives historically.
2. It depends on which economists they were consulting.   

1. It's been too long to find a cite, but from my memory, after-the-fact vote reports showed that recent immigrants stuck with the Progressive Conservatives, in the end, far more than 'old stock' voters did. It wasn't enough, though.

2. This was the Economic Council of Canada - a government think tank of the day.

1. No no, I remember that quote. Hard to say if they stuck with Maloney because he was pretty popular until GST.

2. Hmmm.  Well I will look that up

All we have to do is incentivize moving tech out of Toronto Vancouver to capture that market.

That would require infrastructure. Bell. Telus Rogers road builders developers aren't gonna spend a penny to make a dollar unless the govt lends them 2¢.

To speak in more plain and specific language "what bureaucrats in the CRTC say passes as "high speed internet". regardless of consumer cost.

50 Mbps isn't exactly 'high speed' in 2024 and many, many places don't even have that. Lucky that I live in the main part of town where there's cable to even get that. And the number of people I know shelling out $500 and $150 a month for Starlink shows the market is there.
