PLAN NORD

On May 9th, 2011, Québec premier Jean Charest announced a multi-year, multi-billion dollar enterprise called Plan Nord, to assist economic development in northern Quebec. One of the initiatives in Plan Nord is to "conduct studies to ascertain the feasibility of a road or rail link from Kuujjuaq southward". It is unnecessary to point out the benefits that such a surface transportation route would have on mining developments in the northern part of the Labrador Trough.
