Carney’s First Five Major Projects Include LNG, Span Across the Country
- Prime Minister Mark Carney announced the first five major nation-building projects on Thursday in Edmonton to boost Canada's economy coast to coast.
- These projects follow the passage of Bill C-5 in June, which created the Major Projects Office to fast-track key national projects and reduce U.S. economic reliance.
- The announced projects include LNG Canada Phase 2 in Kitimat, B.C., doubling LNG output, the Darlington New Nuclear Project, Port of Montreal expansion, McIlvenna Bay mine, and Red Chris Mine expansion.
- Carney told Liberal MPs the projects will turbocharge the economy, diversify products, create hundreds of thousands of well-paying jobs, support Indigenous interests, and advance climate goals.
- No pipeline project is included initially due to lack of private developer interest, but Alberta Premier Danielle Smith remains hopeful the evergreening list will add it soon.
