The Aporia · New Brunswick aiming to attract $30 billion in investment at Toronto summit

Premier Susan Holt of New Brunswick is participating in the Canada Investment Summit in Toronto to attract $30 billion in investment for eight projects across various sectors including critical minerals and digital infrastructure. The province aims to highlight opportunities like a new nuclear development and the Sisson Mine project. While some, such as Herb Emery from the University of New Brunswick, doubt whether the summit will significantly impact the economy due to budget deficits, they acknowledge potential for new contracts and long-term growth.

Story summary

Prime Minister Mark Carney is hosting a two-day Canada Investment Summit in Toronto starting September 14, 2026, aimed at attracting $1 trillion in investments over five years. The summit includes high-profile attendees like Larry Fink and Jon Gray from BlackRock and Blackstone, respectively, among others managing over C$120 trillion of assets globally. Investors are being pitched on projects spanning energy, infrastructure, technology, and critical minerals sectors. However, protests are planned for the event by groups concerned about climate change, Indigenous rights, and public service impacts. The summit coincides with other high-profile events like the Toronto International Film Festival and a Blue Jays game, complicating security logistics.
