Build fast: Alberta and Ontario push ahead, Nunavut looks back

from APTN News InFocus · host APTN

This week on APTN News InFocus, host Cierra Bettens digs into the growing push from provinces to fast-track major infrastructure projects, even if it means sidelining environmental protections and Indigenous rights. Ontario and Alberta have signed a new agreement aimed at building more pipelines and rail lines, calling on Prime Minister Mark Carney to scrap legislation they say stands in the way. APTN's Leanne Sanders, who first reported the story, joins us to break down what's at stake as provinces push for rapid development. While governments work to reshape the country's infrastructure, another story highlights what's possible when Indigenous Peoples lead the way. July 9 is Nunavut Day, a day to honour the signing of the Nunavut. This year marks 32 years since that historic moment. APTN's Creeson Agecoutay speaks with Nunavut MP Lori Idlout to reflect on its legacy and what lies ahead. • • • APTN National News, our stories told our way.
