INFRASTRUCTURE CANADA
Public infrastructure is the backbone of our nation ’ s economic prosperity and social development . Investments in modern and efficient public infrastructure help create jobs and promote economic growth and productivity .
From large-scale construction projects to smaller-scale , community-based investments , infrastructure has the power to revitalize , strengthen , and improve the everyday lives of all Canadians .
Over the next 10 years , our Government will invest $ 75 billion in infrastructure that delivers results for Canadians – a stronger economy , a cleaner environment and better
communities . These investments will provide stable , predictable funding for projects that enhance economic growth , job creation and productivity and will help maintain Canada ’ s economic position amongst the strongest of the G7 countries .
In fact , Canada has consistently ranked atop the G7 countries in total investments in infrastructure as a percentage of GDP since our Conservative Government took office in 2006 .
No other federal government in our nation ’ s history has demonstrated this commitment and has made these levels of investment .
