The Canadian Infrastructure Council released a document titled Building an Investment-Ready Canada: Six Questions Governments Should Be Able to Answer to help government leaders enhance their investment strategies for infrastructure. The report highlights the rising demands on Canada’s infrastructure, which cannot solely be met by public funding due to fiscal pressures and aging systems.
To address these challenges, the Prime Minister will host the Canada Investment Summit on September 14-15, 2026, to engage global investors in exploring opportunities within Canada’s infrastructure sector. The paper aims to guide policymakers in converting investor interest into actionable investments, promoting collaboration across all levels of government and Indigenous nations.
Key quotes emphasize that investment readiness focuses on achieving outcomes through strategic planning and that Canada must position itself effectively to compete for infrastructure investment globally.
