Rationale

A $2B increase in territorial formula financing plus critical minerals investment in NWT, Nunavut, and Yukon. Northern infrastructure, Arctic sovereignty, and Indigenous economic participation. Opens new resource corridors.

Details

Epoch: 11

Domain: regional_development

Fiscal cost estimate (LLM): $2.00B CAD

Structural estimate (RIPPLE): +$0.00B CAD net (v3-bfs-signed depth=2, decay=0.5/hop; diverges)

Causal effects: 9 downstream variables affected (9 immediate)

Divergence after: 58.082

Variable changes

  • nwt_gdp: 5 → 5.8
  • territorial_formula_financing: 5.5 → 7.5

Proposed policy move

nwt_gdp: 5 → 5.8 (▲ 0.8)
territorial_formula_financing: 5.5 → 7.5 (▲ 2)

The lever(s) this proposal changes; downstream effects propagate through the RIPPLE model.
