Statement by Electricity Canada on the One Canadian Economy Act

The introduction of the One Canadian Economy Act is an important step to accelerating project approvals and building much-needed infrastructure for Canadians.

When people talk about national interest projects, electricity needs to be top of mind. With load predicted to grow by as much as 75% in some jurisdictions, building up the electricity sector—generation, transmission, and local distribution—not only represents a project in the national interest... it enables all other national interest projects. Canada's electricity sector is ready to build and we are excited for this new direction.
