Pune, India - June 1, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —
Synopsis
Construction activity in Canada was weak during the review period (2012–2016), as a result of depressed economic conditions, low oil prices and weak demand for the country’s major exports. Poor investor confidence led to reduced infrastructure construction activity.

However, the industry’s value is expected to improve over the forecast period (2017–2021). Although the probable persistence of low oil prices is expected to hamper growth throughout 2017, the industry is expected to pick up during the latter part of the forecast period, driven by government efforts to stimulate the economy through investment in public infrastructure and energy projects.
Gradual improvements in consumer and investor confidence are also expected to drive private sector investment in construction projects in the coming years.
In real terms, the industry’s output value registered a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -0.40% during the review-period and is expected to post a CAGR of 1.64% over the forecast period.

• In a bid to promote economic growth, in November 2016, the government announced plans to invest CAD81.2 billion (US$61.5 billion) to develop various large-scale projects during 2017–2027. These projects include energy and public transport infrastructure projects; social infrastructure projects including childcare centers, leisure and hospitality buildings and affordable houses; trade-related infrastructure projects and the upgrade of road and digital infrastructure in rural areas. The government’s major infrastructure development program is expected to support expansion in the construction industry over the forecast period.

• In March 2017, the government announced plans to launch the Canada Infrastructure Bank, a new investment hub to boost funding for construction projects in the country. The government’s main aim is to mobilize funds from foreign and private investors by working in collaboration with provincial, territorial and municipal governments. Under the initiative, the government plans to construction several railway corridors, roads, ports, water treatment plants and energy transmission lines.
