WATERFRONT TORONTO
The Port Lands Flood Protection and Enabling Infrastructure project is the
redevelopment of one of the largest portions of under-developed land in a
major urban core in North America. Located along the shore of Lake Ontario
southeast of Toronto’s downtown core, the project will include substantial soil
remediation, a new mouth for the Don River, and critical infrastructure for
flood resilience to unlock the 325-hectare site for residential and commercial
development.

Dwyer Hill Training Centre
$1.4 BILLION
The Department of National Defence is investing in a $1.4 billion (taxes
included), 10-year infrastructure project to upgrade facilities at the Dwyer Hill
Training Centre (DHTC) in Ottawa. This investment
will provide the Canadian Special Operations
Forces Command (CANSOFCOM) with the modern
infrastructure needed to support their training
and operations.
This project will provide more than 100,000
2
m of purpose-built space to meet CANSOFCOM’s
long-term growth, training, and high-readiness operational needs. Work includes replacing 89 aging
and temporary structures with 23 new facilities;
renovating seven buildings; and upgrading the
site’s utilities. Construction began in May 2023.
Foundations for new buildings and concrete work
will start in 2024. Most of the building demolition work will occur between 2028 and 2032,
while the construction of major buildings will be
completed between 2026 and 2033.
