An infrastructure wish-list from Canadian CEOs and business owners
AI Article Summary

Canadian CEOs are urging federal and provincial governments to prioritize large-scale infrastructure projects, including an energy-agnostic utility corridor, to boost national productivity and reduce reliance on the U.S. economy. The KPMG survey reveals a strong call for public-private investments to finance these projects and improve ports and transportation networks. Challenges such as project delays and cost overruns often stem from inadequate governance frameworks, which can be addressed through strategic six-pillar plans to ensure project success. Business leaders emphasize the need for innovation and the incorporation of technology to enhance construction and planning efficiency.
