2025-10-1028 min北美來鴻
北美來鴻加拿大的大躍進9月11日，加拿大總理卡尼宣布首批五個國家重點建設項目 ，加拿大向“七國集團最強國家”（the strongest in the G7）邁進的國家級行動由此拉開序幕，這一目標不僅超越歐洲，更挑戰美國。2024年七國集團GDP總量排名，加拿大以2.2萬億美元墊底，僅為美國的1/13，但人均GDP排名，加拿大卻是第三名英國的1.05倍，第一名美國的80%，趕英超美，一再被特朗普貶低為美國第五十一州的加拿大準備以規模空前的基礎設施建設，跨入大躍進時代。 “將為加拿大創造數以萬計的高薪就業機會、為國家經濟帶來600億元收益”的五個大項目是：卑詩省基蒂馬特的加拿大液化天然氣二期項目、安省達靈頓核電站模塊化反應堆項目、蒙特利爾港孔特雷科爾擴建項目、薩省福蘭·麥克爾文納灣銅礦項目和卑詩省紅克里斯銅金礦擴建項目，卡尼說“這五個項目僅僅是個開始，更多項目將在11月中旬前公布”，之前被媒體曝光的政府內部清單32個大項目一旦全部兌現，加拿大全國十省三區將成為熱火朝天的大工地，僅以蒙特利爾港孔特雷科爾擴建項目為例，迪拜環球港務集團與蒙特利爾港務局聯合投資16億美元，2030年建成年吞吐量115萬標準箱的新港口，相當於一個重慶港。 過去，加拿大重大項目審批時間動輒五年以上，為加快進度，卡尼8月29日宣布設立重大項目辦公室（Major Projects Office），將審批上限縮減至兩年內。卡尼稱“從聖勞倫斯航道到1967年世博會，加拿大一直是建設者的國家。值此關鍵時刻，加拿大必須繼承傳統，果斷行動，將經濟從依賴型轉變為韌性型。我們正以幾代人從未見過的速度建設港口、鐵路和電網，這些重大項目將釋放加拿大的全部經濟潛力，使加拿大更強大”。當天他的辦公室發出公告說“長期以來，大型基礎設施建設因繁瑣低效的審批流程而停滯不前，導致巨額投資擱置。新政府決心改變這一流程，以便加拿大建設基礎設施，推動經濟轉型，成為七國集團中最強大經濟體”。 關於這一行動的背景，加拿大戰略諮詢公司（StrategyCorp）總監傑夫·馬洪（Jeff Mahon）9月4日在《環球郵報》撰文《如今貿易關乎實力，加拿大也必須參與其中》，他認為特朗普“對加拿大的貿易攻擊只是一個更大計畫的開始”，“美國正推行一項政策，利用其在全球經濟和安全事務中的核心地位，最大限度地提升實力”，“渥太華也正系統地、悄悄地調整其政策，使其與特朗普保持一致”，但這會令“加拿大事實上的主權——其自由行使外交、安全和經濟政策的能力——面臨風險”。唯一的解決辦法是通過國內經濟發展，迅速增強加拿大自身實力。為明確機遇和制約因素，必須認識到，我們已進入了一個新的地緣政治時代，即經濟安全體制時代。卡尼的“建設強大加拿大”議程旨在引導特朗普所催化的民族主義勢頭，糾正過去加拿大對經濟實力的忽視，尤其是在那些有望引領多元化努力的領域。 在行動前，自由黨政府做了法律上的準備，它提出的《加拿大建設法案》（C-5法案）於今年6月獲得國會通過，該法案授權政府簡化審批流程，加快大項目建設。至於重大項目辦公室總部為何設在遠離政治中心的西部城市卡爾加里，加拿大商會主席坎迪斯·萊恩（Candace Laing）稱“卡爾加里靠近許多參與重大項目的公司，同時也傳遞出一種真正的國家主義和加拿大團隊精神的信號”，因為卡爾加里是西部分離運動的中心，一系列重大項目的實施將增強這個地區對加拿大聯邦的向心力。 儘管反對黨對這一系列大型項目冷嘲熱諷，但真正的阻力來自擔心諮詢權被削弱的原住民，9月3日加拿大原住民領袖齊聚溫尼伯，警告政府和業界，沒有原住民的參與，重大項目將無法推進。為此在首批重大項目公布的前一天，政府宣布成立原住民諮詢委員會，向重大項目辦公室提供建議，由該辦公室與受項目影響的原住民直接磋商。重大項目辦公室將在兩年內提供 4000 萬加元，提高原住民持續參與重大項目的能力，聯邦還將原住民貸款從50億擴大到100億加元，為各地原住民創造長期經濟機會。

北美来鸿加拿大的大跃进9月11日，加拿大总理卡尼宣布首批五个国家重点建设项目 ，加拿大向“七国集团最强国家”（the strongest in the G7）迈进的国家级行动由此拉开序幕，这一目标不仅超越欧洲，更挑战美国。2024年七国集团GDP总量排名，加拿大以2.2万亿美元垫底，仅为美国的1/13，但人均GDP排名，加拿大却是第三名英国的1.05倍，第一名美国的80%，赶英超美，一再被特朗普贬低为美国第五十一州的加拿大准备以规模空前的基础设施建设，跨入大跃进时代。 “将为加拿大创造数以万计的高薪就业机会、为国家经济带来600亿元收益”的五个大项目是：卑诗省基蒂马特的加拿大液化天然气二期项目、安省达灵顿核电站模块化反应堆项目、蒙特利尔港孔特雷科尔扩建项目、萨省福兰·麦克尔文纳湾铜矿项目和卑诗省红克里斯铜金矿扩建项目，卡尼说“这五个项目仅仅是个开始，更多项目将在11月中旬前公布”，之前被媒体曝光的政府内部清单32个大项目一旦全部兑现，加拿大全国十省三区将成为热火朝天的大工地，仅以蒙特利尔港孔特雷科尔扩建项目为例，迪拜环球港务集团与蒙特利尔港务局联合投资16亿美元，2030年建成年吞吐量115万标准箱的新港口，相当于一个重庆港。 过去，加拿大重大项目审批时间动辄五年以上，为加快进度，卡尼8月29日宣布设立重大项目办公室（Major Projects Office），将审批上限缩减至两年内。卡尼称“从圣劳伦斯航道到1967年世博会，加拿大一直是建设者的国家。值此关键时刻，加拿大必须继承传统，果断行动，将经济从依赖型转变为韧性型。我们正以几代人从未见过的速度建设港口、铁路和电网，这些重大项目将释放加拿大的全部经济潜力，使加拿大更强大”。当天他的办公室发出公告说“长期以来，大型基础设施建设因繁琐低效的审批流程而停滞不前，导致巨额投资搁置。新政府决心改变这一流程，以便加拿大建设基础设施，推动经济转型，成为七国集团中最强大经济体”。 关于这一行动的背景，加拿大战略咨询公司（StrategyCorp）总监杰夫·马洪（Jeff Mahon）9月4日在《环球邮报》撰文《如今贸易关乎实力，加拿大也必须参与其中》，他认为特朗普“对加拿大的贸易攻击只是一个更大计划的开始”，“美国正推行一项政策，利用其在全球经济和安全事务中的核心地位，最大限度地提升实力”，“渥太华也正系统地、悄悄地调整其政策，使其与特朗普保持一致”，但这会令“加拿大事实上的主权——其自由行使外交、安全和经济政策的能力——面临风险”。唯一的解决办法是通过国内经济发展，迅速增强加拿大自身实力。为明确机遇和制约因素，必须认识到，我们已进入了一个新的地缘政治时代，即经济安全体制时代。卡尼的“建设强大加拿大”议程旨在引导特朗普所催化的民族主义势头，纠正过去加拿大对经济实力的忽视，尤其是在那些有望引领多元化努力的领域。 在行动前，自由党政府做了法律上的准备，它提出的《加拿大建设法案》（C-5法案）于今年6月获得国会通过，该法案授权政府简化审批流程，加快大项目建设。至于重大项目办公室总部为何设在远离政治中心的西部城市卡尔加里，加拿大商会主席坎迪斯·莱恩（Candace Laing）称“卡尔加里靠近许多参与重大项目的公司，同时也传递出一种真正的国家主义和加拿大团队精神的信号”，因为卡尔加里是西部分离运动的中心，一系列重大项目的实施将增强这个地区对加拿大联邦的向心力。 尽管反对党对这一系列大型项目冷嘲热讽，但真正的阻力来自担心咨询权被削弱的原住民，9月3日加拿大原住民领袖齐聚温尼伯，警告政府和业界，没有原住民的参与，重大项目将无法推进。为此在首批重大项目公布的前一天，政府宣布成立原住民咨询委员会，向重大项目办公室提供建议，由该办公室与受项目影响的原住民直接磋商。重大项目办公室将在两年内提供 4000 万加元，提高原住民持续参与重大项目的能力，联邦还将原住民贷款从50亿扩大到100亿加元，为各地原住民创造长期经济机会。
