$273 billion worth of assets from an array of industries
including transit, transportation, energy, healthcare,
and of course, water. Spread across 10 out of the 13
provinces and territories, this year’s edition displays

these monumental undertakings.

Canada is embarking on its own mission to showcase

report, slated for publication next year. This focused
report will shine a well-deserved spotlight on those vital
projects across the country whose goals are to improve
both the lives of Canadians and the land we inhabit.
So stay tuned, because there is always more to discover

water projects in Canada.
