Canadian Construction Association - Association canadienne de la construction
The Canadian Construction Association (CCA) is the national voice for Canada’s heavy civil, institutional, commercial, and industrial construction industry, giving voice to the public policy, legal and standards development goals of contractors, suppliers and allied business professionals working in, or with, our industry.
Construction is the backbone of the Canadian economy, employing some 1.4 million Canadians, pumping about $141 billion annually into the national economy, and accounting for nearly 7.5 percent of Canada’s gross domestic product (GDP). Its impact is immense and the life we enjoy – from the schools we send our kids to; the hospitals that care for us; to the roads and bridges that connect our communities – is all possible because of construction.
