Looking Ahead: Leaving a Legacy

Canada’s Parliament Buildings are the most visible symbol of our democracy. The buildings and grounds have been the setting for major political, social and economic decisions affecting generations of Canadians.

Building the Futureprovides many of the ingredients for ensuring that the long-term renovation program for the Parliament buildings meets the current and future needs of the House of Commons. Now, the commitment of all partners is needed to incorporate these requirements and those of the other Parliamentary institutions into a detailed plan of action.

The House will participate actively in the development and implementation of the action plan and will remain open and accountable throughout.

The House of Commons is committed to ensuring that, as we move ahead boldly and deliberately, the history and vision that created Parliament Hill will continue to inspire all who enter the Precinct.
