"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.

"Move forward with One Project, One Review. Within six months, we will sign Cooperation and Substitution Agreements with all willing Premiers, as well as Indigenous Governing Bodies, allowing the federal government to recognize provincial, territorial, and Indigenous-led assessments. It will reinforce the rigours of Canada’s system that protects the environment, guarantees Indigenous consultation and involvement, and builds community buy-in. This is a bonus for investors because it provides long-term certainty, which compared to growing uncertainty in the U.S., provides a distinct Canadian advantage." — liberal.ca, retrieved 2025-04-21

"Establish a Major Federal Project Office to advance a One Project, One Review approach which will provide efficiency and certainty for investors. This office will have a strong new mandate to:

» act as a “One Window” application portal for project proponents to reduce duplication and paperwork when seeking decisions and permits for major projects;

» issue decisions on major projects within two years instead of five - including additional approvals outside of the Impact Assessment Act - while fully upholding environmental integrity and Indigenous rights;

» shift the project review focus “why” to “how”;"

"Require the new Major Federal Project Office to render final decisions on projects on a maximum two-year timeline, much faster than the former government’s five-year timeline.

"Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre announced today he will create a ‘Canada First’ National Energy Corridor to fast-track approvals for transmission lines, railways, pipelines, and other critical infrastructure across Canada in a pre-approved transport corridor entirely within Canada, transporting our resources within Canada and to the world while bypassing the United States. It will bring billions of dollars of new investment into Canada’s economy, create powerful paycheques for Canadian workers, and restore our economic independence." — conservative.ca, retrieved 2025-04-17

"In the corridor, all levels of government will provide legally binding commitments to approve projects. This means investors will no longer face the endless regulatory limbo that has made Canadians poorer. First Nations will be involved from the outset, ensuring that economic benefits flow directly to them and that their approval is secured before any money is spent." — conservative.ca, retrieved 2025-04-17

"One-year maximum wait times for approvals with a target of six months.

"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.

This means businesses could buy the land, move in, hire people and build, knowing they already have the permits."
