Prime Minister Mark Carney will be in Terrace today to announce the next round of major “nation-building projects.”

On Nov. 10, Carney took questions from reporters at a news conference in Fredericton, New Brunswick about potential provincial projects on the East Coast. He later revealed that the full list of fast-tracked projects would be unveiled on Nov. 13 in Prince Rupert, but since then, the itinerary has been changed.

The Port of Prince Rupert serves as an increasing stage for the government’s infrastructure push, as the Ksi Lisims liquified natural gas project was approved by Ottawa in September and has since received necessary permits to begin construction.

Terrace is a major inland hub for industrial projects in Northwest B.C.

At least four energy and mining developments are expected to be added to the major project list as well.
