Premiers huddle with Carney in Saskatoon to decide what major projects to prioritize

  • Provincial and territorial premiers met with Prime Minister Mark Carney in Saskatoon on June 2, 2025, to prioritize major national infrastructure and resource projects.
  • The meeting aimed to identify shovel-ready projects that the federal government could fast-track as being in the national interest amid ongoing trade tensions and approval delays.
  • Premiers presented wish lists including pipelines, mining initiatives like the Ring of Fire, the Grays Bay Road and Port, and the Pathways Alliance carbon capture project, though some projects lacked proponents or faced opposition.
  • Carney emphasized that "decarbonized" oil production aligns with the country's overall national interests and indicated that the approval timeline for projects would be shortened from five years to a maximum of two years.
  • The discussions ended without concrete decisions, underscoring challenges in consensus and the need for political leaders to find proponents to catalyze investment and build Canada into an energy superpower.
