The fast track on projects deemed in the national interest is well on the way to being paved. But while Canadians broadly support the concept of accelerating the timelines of major national infrastructure projects, concern remains over what steps are being skipped to get there.

New data from the non-profit Angus Reid Institute finds three-quarters (74%) of Canadians say they support “fast-tracking” major projects. But half (49%) are opposed to bypassing environmental reviews to speed things up, and three-in-10 (30%) do not want provincial oversight tossed to the wayside either.
