There’s no solving the housing crisis without addressing housing-enabling infrastructure. Likewise for our economy: Canadian industry is reliant on trade-enabling infrastructure like highways, rail systems, ports and pipelines, and may become more so as we seek to diversify our trading partnerships. And it is a similar picture for our energy markets. The move away from carbon-fuelled vehicles, homes and industry brings a need for new and expanded power plants, transmission lines, and so forth. Infrastructure is the backbone upon which our society operates.

To explore where Canada’s infrastructure sector is at, and where it is going, from a construction perspective, we invite you to join On-Site Magazine and representatives from several key industry organizations at 1 p.m. (ET) on Monday, March 24, as we explore current projects, upcoming projects, and the sector’s prospects going forward during this one-hour snapshot of Canada’s infrastructure sector, through a construction lens.

Panellists will include:

• Louis-Philippe Champagne, vice-president of public affairs and industry practices at the Canadian Construction Association
• Lisa Mitchell, president and CEO of the Canadian Council for Public-Private Partnerships
• Peter Weltman, vice-chair, Canadian Infrastructure Council
