FEATURED THINKING
Designing Cities to Reduce Emissions
Cities around the world are responsible for 70 percent of carbon emissions and are significantly impacted by the effects of climate change. The additional infrastructure costs for climate change mitigation and adaptation are anticipated to continue to rise as towns and cities continue to grapple with the impacts.
FEATURED THINKING
Learning from New South Wales
The New South Wales Government developed a ten-point commitment to the construction sector in 2018 to strengthen the relationship between government and private sector to drive better project outcomes. This provides a template to transform the relationships between governments and the private sector.

Canadian Infrastructure Market Cost Outlook
May 16 @ 5:00 pm - 7:30 pm

Although some prices of key materials have stabilized the demand for labour remains high, with certain skills in particular demand. Price volatility, an ambitious pipeline, increased investment in the United States, and busy residential and commercial construction sector are all contributing to unpredictable market.
