Join our call to action to the federal government to address industry concerns

The Canadian Construction Association (CCA) is urging the federal government to address core industry issues through our new campaign, a strong foundation for a stronger Canada.

This campaign will build momentum for our Parliament Hill Day on November 7. Industry leaders will be meeting with parliamentarians to remind them of the construction sector’s essential role in creating and maintaining the infrastructure Canadians use daily.

We are asking for a long-term national plan and investment commitment for foundational infrastructure and measures to increase the construction workforce. This includes trade-enabling infrastructure to strengthen our economic competitiveness as a nation and adapting federal procurement to support shared risk, reduce red tape and accelerate approvals for critical projects. And with the national housing crisis, we are also educating the federal government on the need to secure funding for the infrastructure at the heart of new housing and communities. From roads, bridges, schools and shopping centres to water and sewer systems, telecommunications and the power grid, all of this must be built and maintained by construction workers.

With construction as its partner, the federal government can build a stronger Canada through comprehensive infrastructure investment, workforce development and procurement modernization.
