The Building Canada Act, also known as Bill C-5, is a federal government bill that allows the cabinet to quickly grant federal approvals for major projects deemed to be in the national interest, such as mines and pipelines. The bill has been controversial and faced criticism from Indigenous leaders for being fast-tracked through Parliament without prior consultation with First Nations communities.
