"Today Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre revealed his plan to create ‘Canada Shovel Ready Zones.’ These zones will be areas already permitted for construction, meaning the permits will not just take less time, but will already be completed when a company decides to build a mine, LNG terminal or pipeline, bringing home thousands of jobs for Canadian workers and taking back control of our economy from the Americans.

Poilievre described how his Canada First Conservative Government will get the Canada Shovel Ready Zones done:

1. Identify a location that makes sense for a power station, LNG plant, pipeline, or another major project.
2. Make sure it is safe for Canadians and the environment.
3. Work with other levels of government to lock down zoning and permits in advance of construction.
4. Offer pre-permitting before even getting an application so that permits could be published online with a checklist that businesses would have to complete in order to protect nature and people.
