Harper’s Spending Cuts: Widespread Applause, Highest Scores for Clean Auditor-General Report, Cuts in Cabinet Spending, and Ultra-Low Debt/GDP Ratio
A Weekly BDO Dunwoody CEO Business Leader Poll by COMPAS in the Financial Post

The federal government just announced $ 1 billion in cuts with another billion to follow. The response of the COMPAS panel of CEOs and business leaders is one of widespread applause. Particularly high performance scores are given to the Harper government for a clean Auditor-General Report, cuts in cabinet spending, and achieving the lowest debt/gdp ratio in 24 years.

These are the major findings from this past week’s web-survey of CEOs and business leaders undertaken for The Financial Post under sponsorship of BDO Dunwoody LLP.
