In a rapidly shifting global landscape, we are building One Canadian Economy turbo-charged by major nation-building projects that unleash our natural resources, diversify our products and markets, and create hundreds of thousands of high-paying careers for our workers, all while protecting the environment and upholding the rights of Indigenous Peoples.
Budget 2025 is the government's plan to confront the challenges of this moment head-on. It is a bold and ambitious plan to transform our economy from one that is reliant on a single trade partner, to one that is stronger, more self-sufficient and resilient to global shocks. At the core of this new strategy is new nation-building infrastructure: ports, mines, trade corridors, and other major projects that will unlock vast deposits of natural resources and enable us to sell them to new markets across the country and around the world.
