Don't tell Quebec!

Also, this would obviously mean Churchill is going to expand drastically. One can hope I was wrong in saying it'll never happen.

A Mark Carney-led government will:
Identify opportunities with provinces and territories to develop the economic corridors that can make the greatest contribution to interprovincial and international trade. We will prioritize infrastructure projects in regions where jobs and growth are held back by infrastructure capacity constraints—such as the Prairie provinces, Atlantic provinces, and the territories.

Focus on infrastructure investments with multi-use opportunities, especially in areas such as critical minerals, defence, and deep-water ports.

Designate Critical Infrastructure Corridors, building on the success of the Trans-Canada Highway and more recent progress in the Northwest Territories, to allow for rapid designation of corridors pre-approved for multi-use National Priority Projects.

Develop an inventory of the critical economic infrastructure with provinces and territories that would enhance the economic and national security of Canadians. We will also develop a fast-track approval process for projects that align with national security and trade priorities.

Support investments in Canada’s North by ensuring a resilient supply of critical goods to our most remote communities. This also means increasing exports of goods, such as critical minerals, potash, and agricultural products. Canada’s northern trade infrastructure has been neglected, with limited highway access, small airports, few large ports, and almost no railways.

Invest in—and expand on—Canada’s National Cyber Security Strategy to better protect critical infrastructure like ports, airports, and railroads from hostile foreign states and actors. Canada’s critical infrastructure is highly susceptible to cyber threats that could devastate our economy if it is not adequately protected.
