A new report by the Expert Group on Canada-U.S. Relations suggests that the Carney government needs to focus on achieving 'quick wins' and advancing major energy projects of national importance. The report highlights the significance of addressing challenges posed by the compressed timelines established by Bill C-5, which was passed by the government in June. The bill aims to fast-track initiatives like ports, critical mineral developments, economic corridors, and LNG terminals. The report emphasizes the need for the government to deepen Indigenous engagement and ensure that significant energy sector proposals, including oil and gas developments, nuclear, hydrogen, and renewable infrastructure, are on Ottawa's major projects list. The study recommends that the federal cabinet should designate 'low-risk, high-impact' priority projects to expedite through the approval process in the next six months to establish early successes and maintain momentum. Overall, the report provides guidance on how the government can achieve support for its energy strategy and overcome internal challenges to drive economic development and energy projects in Canada.
