Minister Calls for Wartime Effort to Build Infrastructure

CANADA, JUN 20 – Bill C-5 aims to remove federal barriers and expedite approvals while ensuring Indigenous rights and environmental protections, with formal Indigenous consultations planned this summer, officials said.

  • On Friday in Ottawa, Prime Minister Mark Carney expressed his support for the House of Commons' approval of Bill C-5, known as the One Canadian Economy Act.
  • The bill aims to fast-track national projects and remove internal trade barriers to stimulate economic growth while involving Indigenous partnerships.
  • Support for fast-tracking projects stands at 74% among Canadians, although 49% oppose bypassing environmental reviews, with concerns strongest in Quebec.
  • Carney described the plan as the most significant economic effort in recent years, emphasizing that Canadians have the ability to create value for themselves beyond what external forces could undermine.
  • Bill C-5 now moves to the Senate, and its success depends on Indigenous consultation and balancing economic growth with environmental and rights protections.
