Canada Lands Company Limited

The strategic plan for Canada Lands aims to ensure the innovative and commercially sound redevelopment and reintegration of surplus Government of Canada properties into local communities, while also developing, retaining, and managing certain real estate assets and uniquely Canadian attractions. Its vision is to be the Government of Canada's principal real property agency, dedicated to developing great Canadian communities and acting as a premier owner and manager of select uniquely Canadian attractions. The plan is founded on values of Financial Resilience, Environmental Sustainability, and Social Impact. Strategic priorities include transforming surplus federal properties by accelerating housing, streamlining acquisitions, raising environmental and social objectives, and including employment generators; creating unique Canadian experiences at its attractions; and becoming a workplace of choice by addressing equity, diversity, inclusion, accessibility, and environmental sensitivity.

This document outlines the plans to transform Tunney's Pasture from a single-use employment center into a vibrant, sustainable, mixed-use community. The strategic direction is guided by seven principles, including environmental sustainability, community integration, and transit-oriented development. Key focus areas include creating a live-work-play community with new housing (including affordable units), an improved transportation network, green spaces, and shared amenities. The plan emphasizes sustainability objectives, such as reducing carbon footprint and water/energy use, and aims to achieve net-zero carbon by 2030 through initiatives like a new district energy system. The implementation involves collaborative work between Public Services and Procurement Canada and Canada Lands Company, with ongoing community and Indigenous engagement.
