In a major development covered under Canada Today News in Punjabi, Prime Minister Mark Carney has unveiled seven new nation-building projects designed to reshape Canada’s economy, infrastructure, and job market. These initiatives focus on green energy, affordable housing, advanced technology, national security, and modern transportation systems. The government’s Major Projects Office is recommending fast-tracked approval for all seven projects.
Carney stated that these large-scale projects will strengthen Canada’s economic independence—especially during increasing pressure from the United States—and will boost the country’s leadership in the growing critical minerals sector.
Government data shows that the newly announced seven projects, along with five projects revealed in September, have a combined economic value of 116 billion dollars. Carney emphasized that these projects are transformational and will help Canada move toward becoming an energy powerhouse. They will also open new economic and trade pathways, reducing the nation’s reliance on the U.S.
The announced projects include:
- Sisson Mine for critical minerals (New Brunswick)
- Crawford Nickel Project (Ontario)
- Ksi Lisims LNG Project (British Columbia)
- Iqaluit Hydro Project (Nunavut)
- Nouveau Monde Graphite Phase 2 Project (Quebec)
- Northwest Critical Conservation Corridor (Northwestern BC & Yukon) – A broader regional concept that could include mineral development and clean-energy transmission infrastructure.
This major announcement is one of the key highlights featured in Canada Today News in Punjabi.
