Whether you’re at the beginning of the process or already navigating approvals, we can help you move your project forward faster, with greater clarity, and in alignment with Canada’s economic, environmental, and reconciliation goals.
How we can help
Through our office, proponents receive:
- Access to coordinated support for your project across all relevant federal departments and agencies;
- Guidance on assessment, regulatory and permitting requirements and clear pathways towards federal decisions on your projects;
- Guidance on establishing partnerships with Indigenous Peoples and consulting meaningfully with Indigenous rights-holders on projects;
- Strategic support to identify solutions to barriers for project development;
- Information on federal financing supports for major projects.
