Construction has officially started on a port expansion near Montreal—the first so-called nation-building project that was fast-tracked for approval by the federal government.
Prime Minister Mark Carney was on hand today at the terminal in Contrecœur, Que., about 45 kilometres northeast of Montreal, to announce the start of work.
