PM Carney says "We Will Build a New Deepwater Port at Grays Bay," refers project to Major Projects Office

PM Mark Carney says, "WE WILL BUILD A NEW DEEPWATER PORT AT GRAYS BAY IN NUNAVUT, and a 230-kilometre all-season road connecting it to the territory’s border. This will help unlock mineral resources, and enable their easy export. It will also work in partnership with the Kitikmeot Inuit Association to realize the transformative potential of this decades-long dream." 

The Prime Minister's comments today in Yellowknife accompanied the referral of WKR's Grays Bay Road and Port Project to the Major Projects Office. This is a major milestone advancing the project towards construction.
