Construction is an Economic Driver in Western Canada

Canada’s natural resources accounted for 17% of the GDP in 2015, so the ongoing opposition that resource projects face has repercussions for the country as a whole. Projects in the energy industry are a leader in BC for job creation. A study by the Ministry of Energy, Mines and Natural Gas found a potential for 100 000 new permanent jobs projected in the LNG industry. This doesn’t account for the countless more temporary positions that would be present for the construction and development of the land during a new project’s investment. Great Northern Bridgeworks is a key player in facilitating the development of such projects, with our services available across Western Canada. Investment in our natural resources is vital to planning for future generations of Canadians, and in order to meet the growing needs of BC.

Beyond planning for Canadian’s futures, the energy sector is vital to global growth as a whole – the demand for global energy is expected to grow 32% overall by the year 2040. This all contributes to the need for BC to diversify its exports with additional LNG development.
