Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne will release a spring economic update on Tuesday, April 28.

The minister announced the date during Question Period Tuesday. Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Mark Carney said the update will include additional policy measures to support Canadians.

“This is going to be a plan that is going to help families. It’s going to help our industry. It’s going to help our nation, Mr. Speaker, to prosper, and to obviously bring good news to Canadians across the nation,” Mr. Champagne said.

The government announced last year that it was reversing the traditional pattern of releasing a spring budget and a fall update.
