Aging Infrastructure in Canada

Hello readers! Let’s have a little chat about something that’s affecting all of us here inCanada—our aging infrastructure. It’s not the most glamorous topic, but it’s super important. Think of it as the nuts and bolts that keep our country running smoothly.
The Canadian Infrastructure Report Card finds that “the state of our infrastructure is at risk, which should be cause for concern for all Canadians. In order to change course, Canada’s public infrastructure will require significant attention in the coming decades.” We’re working to keep things in good shape, but there’s always room for improvement. This means making sure our aging infrastructure stays safe and reliable for everyone to use.
So, let’s jump in and keep it simple!

Why It’s Important to Have a Plan for Aging Infrastructure

Dealing with our ageing infrastructure isn’t just about fixing aging assets but securing our future. Here’s why:

Safety and Reliability: Newer roads, energy systems, and other infrastructure are safer and more reliable. They can handle more capacity, provide cleaner energy, and produce outcomes more efficiently.

Economic Growth: Upgrading infrastructure creates jobs and boosts local economies. When investing in repairs, refurbishments, and upgrading assets, we invest in our communities and our future.

Environmental Impact: Modern infrastructure is often more environmentally friendly. New energy systems can reduce pollution and use resources more efficiently.

Competitiveness: Organizations with modern infrastructure are more competitive. They attract businesses and investments, which leads to more opportunities for everyone.

Quality of Life: Better infrastructure means better quality of life for everyone. It means better performance and enjoyment from the built environment and opportunities for new jobs and businesses to thrive.
