HAC Submits 2025 Fall Federal Budget Priorities

The Hotel Association of Canada (HAC) has submitted its recommendations for the 2025 Fall Federal Budget, focusing on three urgent priorities for Canada’s hotel industry:

  • Enhancing international competitiveness to attract more visitors and investment.
  • Creating a competitive tax and investment environment that encourages growth and strengthens our industry’s global position.
  • Addressing workforce challenges in rural and remote communities to ensure hotels can meet demand and deliver high-quality service nationwide.
