By 2026, with the support of Canada Infrastructure Bank and
private partners, the Port of Montreal intends to develop a new
state-of-the-art container terminal.
The greenfield terminal will be fully connected to the regional transportation hub, including a Class 1 railroad and highway
connections.
After receiving a favorable decision statement to proceed
with the project and launching, in Q4 2021, an RFQ, qualified
bidders were selected in Q2 2022 for the Request for Proposal
phase. In Q3 2023, a private partner will be awarded the contract to design, build, finance, operate and maintain the terminal, with construction starting by the end of 2023.
67 Giant Mine Remediation Project $934 million
Between 1948 and 2004, operations at the Giant Mine site
grew to encompass roughly 900 hectares, including several
ponds and small lakes.
In 1999, the former operator entered receivership and the
Government of Canada, and the Government of Northwest
Territories became responsible for the site. Mining
operations continued until 2004. Several environmental
and site remediation needs were identified. This included
cleaning up the 237,000 tonnes of arsenic trioxide dust left
behind in underground chambers and 16 million tonnes of
tailings, open pits, debris, and site infrastructure.
Today, the project’s goals are to: minimize public health
and safety risks; minimize the release of contaminants
from the site to the surrounding environment; remediate
the site in a manner that instills public confidence; and
implement a remediation approach that is cost-effective
and robust.
