We\u2019re proud to announce a new pillar of our plan, the Canada Strong Fund, Canada\u2019s first national sovereign wealth fund. So here\u2019s how it works: A sovereign wealth fund is essentially a national savings and investment account. It\u2019s designed to grow wealth for future generations of Canadians. Many countries, many countries that are blessed with natural resources \u2014 like Norway \u2014 have sovereign wealth funds. Canada hasn\u2019t had one until now. The new Canada Strong Fund will give all Canadians a direct stake in building Canada strong. And we do this because these projects have wider benefits to our economies. For the first time in our history, every Canadian will hold a direct stake in what\u2019s built. We will begin with an initial endowment of $25 billion. We will also do something, something else that\u2019s new and important. For those Canadians who want to participate in an even more direct way, we will make it easy for individual Canadians to invest in the fund, and therefore own a small piece of nation building projects and share in their returns.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Mr. Carney, wearing in a dark suit, standing at a microphone.
