Canada’s government sector is growing faster than its private sector, and the public sector appears set to continue its growth pace, according to the Parliamentary Budget Officer (PBO).
“Growth has been faster in the public sector, generally speaking, than in the private sector,” PBO Yves Giroux told the Commons government operations and estimates committee on Dec. 1, adding that his conclusions were based off Statistics Canada reports from the last few years, as first reported by Blacklock’s Reporter.
