About this video series
Grant Thornton presents our video series on the 2021 Federal Budget. Featuring Tara Benham (National Tax Leader) and various tax experts, we explore what Canadians may see in the upcoming budget, a recap of budget highlights and the budget’s implications for individuals and businesses.
In an unprecedented time, the federal government has delivered an unprecedented budget. At almost 800 pages, the federal government’s 2021 budget (“Budget 2021”) is massive in size and spending.
As the 2021 Canadian Federal budget approaches—the first since the pandemic began—Grant Thornton’s Tara Benham (National Tax Leader) and Mike Stubbing (Business Unit Tax Service Line Leader) discuss what businesses and individuals may see.
The federal government is expected to release its budget (Budget 2021) this spring. This will be the first budget tabled since March 19, 2019, before the Liberal government was re-elected, and comes at a time of economic uncertainty caused by the pandemic.
