Atlantic Canada’s construction sector is leading the country in growth and diversification. Major construction projects in the energy sector will drive construction growth in the region over the next few years.
The construction industry in Atlantic Canada is multi-faceted, with large engineering achievements such as the 13-km (8-mile) long Confederation Bridge, hyper-activity in energy-related projects, highway construction, and a solid base of residential and commercial work.
Atlantic Canadian firms are supplying the construction industry across North America and around the world – from basic wood products such as finger jointed lumber, laminated beams and roof trusses to manufactured products such as windows and doors, cabinets, moulding and other fixtures. An example of the scope is to be found in Leby Fixtures and Interiors of Moncton, New Brunswick, which supplied all of the architectural woodwork for the Sheraton Desert Inn and Casino, and the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas.
