Construction of the first phase linking Montreal and Ottawa is set to kick off in 2029 or 2030, and the full project is estimated to cost between $60 billion and $90 billion.Carney also says Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne is following government ethics rules in recusing himself from the project.
