Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson said he is “hopeful” that the government will start announcing major infrastructure project approvals in the fall.

In an interview with The Canadian Press, Hodgson said the federal government has been busy consulting with stakeholders over the summer and has been quietly getting a new major projects office set up to deal with companies hoping to build large-scale projects.
