Top 10 largest construction project starts in Canada and Trend Graph - January 2021

There are several reasons for highlighting upcoming large projects. Such jobs have often received a fair amount of media coverage. Therefore, people in the industry are on the lookout for when job-site work actually gets underway. And, as showcase projects, they highlight geographically where major construction projects are proceeding.

Also, total construction activity is comprised of many small and medium-sized projects and a limited number of large developments. But the largest projects, simply by their nature, can dramatically affect total dollar and square footage volumes. In other words, the timing and size of these projects have an exaggerated influence on market forecasts.

These projects and the ones that fall just below are the economic milestones for our recovery from Covid-19 shut downs.
Governments at all three levels need to re-think how they treat developers. Never forget the story about the Goose and the golden egg!
