Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is proposing legislation that he says will kickstart the construction of pipelines by next year and make up for a lack of progress on major nation building projects.
Poilievre unveiled his party’s Canadian Sovereignty Act during an Aug. 7 press conference in Calgary. If passed, the legislation would guarantee construction starts on two pipelines, an LNG project, and a road to Ontario’s Ring of Fire by March 14—the first anniversary of Mark Carney becoming prime minister.
