Carney says Canada will soon announce funding for port infrastructure
By Canadian Press on August 26, 2025.
OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney says expansions to ports in Montreal and Manitoba could be among the first projects fast tracked under his government’s new major projects bill.
Carney says the government will make an announcement about new port infrastructure in the next two weeks.
The ports comments came as Carney was in Germany and then Latvia today expanding trade ties in Europe with new agreements on energy and critical minerals — projects that will likely require upgrading ports to ship those products to Europe.
Carney specifically identified the Contrecoeur expansion of the Port of Montreal as something that might be one of the first projects approved under his government’s major projects bill.
The government passed Bill C-5 in just two weeks in June, allowing it to quickly approve major projects it considers to be in the national interest.
He also cited what he described as “effectively” a new port in Churchill, Man. so it can ship liquefied natural gas.
