With Ottawa just days away from delivering its budget, the federal finance minister gave mention to Churchill Falls while talking about projects that will help to “build Canada” during a speech in Toronto.
Last week, the feds revealed the cover of their 2026 budget document – featuring the Churchill River.
During a speech to the Canadian Club of Toronto, Francois-Phillipe Champagne underscored the importance of Churchill Falls to job creation.
He says Canada must “build again, at speed and scale not seen in generations.” He says the country is doing that, and lists Churchill Falls as an example of a “pillar of growth” that is being built.
