King Charles, Queen Camilla wrap whirlwind visit, after War Memorial wreath laying, throne speech
Another promise that Carney has teased, and is here again in this speech, is to build more, including energy infrastructure — and to do it fast.
'To build Canada strong, the government is working closely with provinces, territories, and Indigenous peoples to identify and catalyze projects of national significance,' the speech reads.
'Projects that will connect Canada, that will deepen Canada's ties with the world, and that will create high-paying jobs for generations.'
The speech reiterates Carney's promise to set up a 'major federal project office' to reduce the time needed to approve a project from five years to two and strike agreements with every interested province and territory within six months to realize its goal of 'one project, one review.'
Still, many Canadians and players will be looking for more information about what these 'projects of national significance' will be.
