Premier Smith and Minister Freeland's attendance at the groundbreaking ceremony

Premier Smith, along with Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, is thrilled to witness the significant progress being made in Calgary's southeast region, particularly with the advancement of the Green Line project.


This groundbreaking event marks the beginning of a transformative journey that will not only address the pressing issue of traffic congestion but also create numerous employment opportunities and enhance the quality of life for Calgarians.

The Green Line is a testament to the importance of forward-thinking infrastructure that focuses on sustainability, innovation, and the needs of a growing urban population. This project underscores the Alberta government's commitment to investing in projects that promote smart growth, environmental stewardship, and economic prosperity. The collaboration between federal and provincial governments is essential in realizing such ambitious initiatives that will shape the future of our cities.

By constructing this new transit line, we are not just building a mode of transportation; we are creating connections that will strengthen communities, reduce our carbon footprint, and foster inclusive growth. The Green Line will serve as a catalyst for the development of livable, walkable neighborhoods and provide convenient access to essential services, employment hubs, and recreational areas.

The Alberta government remains steadfast in its support for the Green Line and is eager to see the positive impact it will have on the lives of residents and the economy of the province. This historic investment in public transit is a clear signal that Alberta is open for business and ready to lead the way in building a more resilient, modern, and interconnected nation.

Thank you for your ongoing commitment to this vital project, and we look forward to the day when the Green Line becomes an integral part of Calgary's transportation network, serving as a shining example of what can be achieved when governments work together for the greater good.
