OTTAWA—Prime Minister Mark Carney is on a mission to “build, baby, build.” And he wants to do it fast.
It’s a goal that was central to the Liberal leader’s pitch in an election campaign dominated by U.S. President Donald Trump’s economic aggression towards Canada.
Seized by a desire to Trump-proof the Canadian economy and supercharge its growth, Carney has vowed to speed up resource development and streamline federal project approvals, all while maintaining environmental standards and respecting the rights of Indigenous groups and getting them a share of the wealth from the resources on their lands.
