The National Capital Commission wants to turn an informal dirt path into an official paved pathway in Jacques-Cartier Park, Gatineau. The 100-metre connection would link the Voyageurs Pathway to the Macdonald-Cartier Bridge. About 5 trees would be...
Why This Matters: Use this path to bike or walk between Gatineau and Ottawa? Right now it's an unofficial dirt trail. Making it official means better drainage, signage, and year-round access. A notable White Oak tree will be protected during construction.

Saskatoon Land wants to update the Aspen Ridge neighbourhood plan now that the Saskatoon Freeway route has moved. The changes would extend residential lots to the east boundary, relocate two care home sites, and create a larger mixed-use commercial...
Why This Matters: Live in or near Aspen Ridge? These changes affect what gets built next door. The plan would allow more mixed-use development with shops and services, plus medium-density townhouses. Care home locations would also shift.

EverWind Fuels wants to build a massive transmission line across the Strait of Canso in Nova Scotia. The 345-kilovolt line would connect wind farms to a hydrogen production facility at Point Tupper. The towers would stand 210 metres tall—among the...
Why This Matters: Live near the Strait of Canso? You'd see 210-metre towers on both shores. Ship through the strait? The 75-metre clearance affects what vessels can pass. This project is part of Nova Scotia's push into green hydrogen—a growing industry that could bring jobs to the region.

Montreal's Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve borough is redeveloping Pierre-Tétreault Park and Bellerive Street along the St. Lawrence River. The park hasn't been updated since the 1970s. Plans include new pathways, bike lanes, public washrooms, seating...
Why This Matters: Live in or visit Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve? This park along the St. Lawrence is getting its first major upgrade in 50 years. Cyclists and pedestrians will get better paths, new washrooms, and shaded seating. The stormwater system could also reduce flooding in the area during heavy rains.

DP World wants to build a barge terminal in Vancouver to move shipping containers between the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island. The company says it'll cut truck traffic and greenhouse gas emissions. Construction would start summer 2025 and take...
Why This Matters: Live near Centennial Road? You might see construction crews for seven months starting this summer. The upside: fewer trucks on highways between Vancouver and the Island could mean less traffic for commuters. The facility aims to make supply chains more reliable too.

Montreal's airport authority wants to build a new drop-off area for buses and shuttles at 800 Place Leigh-Capreol, with a pedestrian walkway to the terminal. This is a temporary fix while the main drop-off areas get renovated and expanded. Some...
Why This Matters: Take a shuttle or bus to the Montreal airport? This project affects where you'll be dropped off during major construction. The current STM bus stop will likely move. If you work at Nav Canada or use the AdminParc lot, your access routes are changing too.

Parks Canada is replacing two aging culverts where Rampart Creek crosses the Icefields Parkway (Highway 93N). The old metal culverts are damaged and blocking fish from moving upstream. New concrete culverts will restore fish passage and stop road...
Why This Matters: Drive the Icefields Parkway? Expect a detour when this work happens. The current culverts are failing and threatening the highway itself. For anglers and anyone who cares about mountain streams, this project will help fish move freely again between Rampart Creek and the North Saskatchewan River.

Vancouver International Airport wants to expand its cargo facilities at the South Airport. The project includes enlarging aircraft parking areas to fit four Boeing 777-sized planes, preparing land for a future warehouse, and upgrading nearby roads...
Why This Matters: Live near YVR's South Airport? This project could mean more truck traffic, construction noise, and changes to local roads. The expansion affects the dyke area and could impact nearby communities in Richmond. More cargo capacity also means more jobs at the airport.

Transport Canada needs to dredge the harbor and channel at Cap-aux-Meules to keep the ferry and supply ships running safely. This is the only port on the Magdalen Islands that can handle commercial vessels. Sediment builds up every few years, making...
Why This Matters: Live on the Magdalen Islands? This port is your lifeline. It's how food, fuel, and supplies reach the islands. It's also how the ferry connects you to Prince Edward Island. Without dredging, larger ships can't dock safely.

Transport Canada asked whether security clearance requirements should expand to more port and marine facility workers across Canada. Right now, only certain roles need clearances. This consultation explored extending that to traditional occupations...
Why This Matters: Work at a port or know someone who does? New security clearance rules could affect who gets hired and how long it takes to start work. Background checks add time and paperwork. For workers with past criminal records, this could mean losing access to jobs they've held for years.

Fisheries and Oceans Canada wants to rebuild a deteriorating T-shaped wharf at Louisbourg harbour in Nova Scotia. The outer section has crumbled so badly it's partially barricaded. The fix involves encasing the old concrete caissons in a new...
Why This Matters: This harbour stays open when other Nova Scotia ports freeze over in winter. That makes it a lifeline for fishing crews who need somewhere to land their catch. The wharf also protects the Coast Guard's search and rescue station. If you fish these waters or rely on local seafood, this project keeps...
