\n\nSummit Overview

\n\nPanel 2: Regulatory Recovery: Removing Red Tape so Business Can Grow
\n\nBuilding on the work of our Regulate Smarter campaign\, this session will discuss the impacts of regulatory burden in Canada\, how to build on the federal government&rsquo\;s existing regulatory commitments\, and how Canada should leverage regulatory reform and a driver of growth in the current COVID-economy.
