Prime minister says first 5 projects would generate $60B for Canadian economy
The first five projects include:

Phase two of LNG Canada in Kitimat, B.C., doubling its production of liquefied natural gas.
The Darlington New Nuclear Project in Clarington, Ont., which will make small modular reactors.
Contrecoeur Terminal Container Project to expand the Port of Montreal.
The McIlvenna Bay Foran Copper Mine Project in Saskatchewan.
The expansion of the Red Chris Mine in northwestern B.C.
"Combined, these five projects will generate more than $60 billion for the Canadian economy and create tens of thousands of high-paying careers for our workers," Carney said. "These five projects are just the beginning."

Carney also confirmed CBC News' exclusive Wednesday report that his government would name additional projects that require further work before approval. They include:

Wind West Atlantic Energy, supporting wind power in Atlantic Canada.
The Alberta-based Pathways Plus carbon capture and pipeline project.
An Arctic economic and security corridor.
Upgrades to the Port of Churchill.
All-weather road infrastructure in Northern Canada.
The Alto high-speed rail corridor between Toronto and Quebec City.
The prime minister also unveiled a "critical minerals strategy" that he said will help projects "get to final investment decisions within a two-year window."

So let's hear the griping.
On other sites they all are, but it mainly about how he's a Liberal so it must be bad and that one's a windfarm to kill all the whales.

Trump more or less said so so it must be the God's truth.

Carney says he wants to build things so therefore he's evil. Nuilding things is progress, and progressives are evil leftwing marxist nazis, so therefore it logically follows Carney must be evil too.
(sorry, been hanging around a forum infested with fascists that insist they're mainstream conservatives and doomscroll anything about Canada with a negative fervour that outdoes the National Post)

Yeah, I do a drive by every so often. Flapping fish on the chopping block make more sense. I can't even bother to engage.

I happily don't know where such forums exist, I would never waste my time.

But Carney may be the best Progressive Conservative PM we've had so far. ;)
