McInnis Cement Plant—Construction of the McInnis Cement plant in Port-Daniel-Gascons, Quebec, is nearing completion. The plant, which will have a production capacity of 2.5 million tonnes per year, is scheduled to make its first deliveries in the spring of 2017.
Infrastructure Spending—An increase in federal near-term spending, plus transfers for infrastructure, should provide a boost to domestic demand for non-metallic mineral products, particularly concrete and cement.
Canada’s Carbon Policy—Under the new Pan-Canadian approach to pricing carbon emissions, all Canadian jurisdictions will have a carbon pricing plan in place by 2018. This will increase production costs for the energy-intensive cement industry.
