Feds, provinces must work together to tackle productivity crisis: Alberta premier

CALGARY — Canada’s economic productivity crisis can only be solved if the federal and provincial governments come together to address issues like major project approvals and inter-provincial trade barriers, Alberta’s premier said Wednesday.
Danielle Smith made the remarks in Calgary at a national conference on productivity, a term which describes how much an economy produces per hour worked.
Canada’s lagging productivity record has been in the spotlight in recent months.
