Pleased to be in Ottawa today with federal & provincial partners to discuss the Canada–Ontario Partnership to Build. Strong collaboration is key. DCs fund the infrastructure behind housing, & municipalities need flexible, responsive tools to support growth and affordability.

Water capacity is something I’m hearing about a lot – and I appreciate the conversation.

Most important: our drinking water is safe. We’re managing capacity to keep pace with growth while staying reliable.

I’ll continue to share updates as this work moves ahead.

When we shared our recent update on the Mannheim Water Treatment Plant, you asked what exactly is a side stream? As we work to get more water to the communities where growth is happening, our team has come up with a creative solution that helps us treat more water, faster.

Addressing the water capacity challenge takes action on many fronts.

This made‑in‑#WatReg, container‑based solution is a fast, innovative project helping us get there. I saw it firsthand in Cambridge yesterday – take a look.
