What they're lobbying on (11)
  • Affordable Housing Supports - as an industry, tourism is disproportionately disadvantaged to other sectors of the economy given a high housing price to income ration and therefore requires purpose-built policies and incentives to ensure the sector's future success.
  • Sustainable Tourism within Canada's National Park System - TIAA's interests relate to sustainable investment within national parks, support of Indigenous tourism development, policy and strategic alignment between the ministries of ISED and ECCC in support of the aims of national parks to protect and present these places to Canadians.
  • Canadian Wildfire Preparedness and Response Strategy - TIAA advocates for the establishment of a National WIldfire Task Force that aims to create a non-military forest prevention and firefighting force. TIAA also advocates for the design and funding of a program that provides predictable and scalable financial supports to individuals, businesses and communities impacted by the effects of wildfire
  • TIAA is interested in the working with the Government of Canada to advance its federal tourism goals, as articulated in the Canada 365: Welcoming the World. Every Day. The Federal Tourism Growth Strategy
  • TIAA is interested in ensuring that any proposed changes to labour and immigration policy support the unique needs of the tourism industry, by sector, by region and, by season.
  • TIAA is interested in any proposed changes to policy that positively/negatively impact the ability of small-to-medium-sized tourism enterprises to compete for tourists on a regional/international scale.
  • TIAA is interested in any changes to transportation policy or regulation that positively/negatively impact Canada's ability to compete on an international level for visitors.
  • TIAA desires to see the cost of air travel become more competitive relative to other global markets by reducing fees, levies and taxes on air travel.
  • TIAA desires to see Canada's tourism industry become a zero-rated export product by removing the GST on tourism products sold outside Canada to global tourists.
  • TIAA aims to see improvements to the visa application process, ensuring that the Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) is available to low-risk countries.
  • Discussions regarding the state of Canada's (and Alberta's) visitor economy amidst growing inflationary, interest rate and supply chain pressure
