Structured register of government actions in the geoeconomic space — export controls, tariffs, sanctions, FDI screening, subsidies, industrial-policy laws — cross-referenced into the country, minerals, and ETF surface. Charter: docs/IPTM_CHARTER.md.
Severity 1-5 is the qualitative impact rating (1=minor, 5=structural). The bilateral-trade-grounded quant scorer is the next IPTM milestone. RBI (Register Breadth Index) is a complementary structural-breadth indicator from scripts/py/iptm/breadth.py; divergence between RBI and severity is itself informative (high-sev / low-RBI = strategic chokepoint; low-sev / high-RBI = broad but shallow). Every action has at least one primary source URL. Verify-or-don't-file. See also themes, timeline, graph, sankey, map, country exposure, sector exposure, material exposure (+ graph), weekly briefs, portfolio scan, escalation monitor, trans-shipment hubs. Internal triage tools (RSS-poller candidate feed, source-feed health) live under /admin/candidates + /admin/sources. Subscribe via Atom feed (accepts ?country=CN, ?material=lithium, ?issuer=BIS, ?type=export_control, ?etf=SOXX, ?company=NVDA, ?minSeverity=4, ?year=2026, ?q=…) or pull /api/iptm/actions.
The Canada Infrastructure Bank committed CAD 54 million in equity loans under its Indigenous Equity Initiative to support First Nations ownership stakes in the Wasoqonatl Reliability Intertie, a 160-kilometre, 345-kV transmission line running parallel to the existing Onslow, Nova Scotia-to-Salisbury, New Brunswick connection. CAD 36 million goes to Wskijinu'k Mtmo'taqnuow Agency Limited, giving Nova Scotia's 13 Mi'kmaw First Nations an equity stake, and CAD 18 million to MUIN Transmission Limited Partnership, giving New Brunswick Mi'gmaq First Nations their first ownership position in a large-scale clean-energy project. The new financing brings CIB's total commitment to the Wasoqonatl project to CAD 285 million.
The Canada Infrastructure Bank provided a CAD 139.5 million (approx. USD 99.4 million) loan to BC Hydro, a provincial Crown utility, to fund the early-works phase of the North Coast Transmission Line (NCTL) in northwest British Columbia. Early works cover project planning, engineering, fieldwork, procurement, First Nations consultation and stakeholder engagement ahead of construction. The financing responds to anticipated electricity demand growth from port operations, mining (including critical-minerals projects), hydrogen production, LNG and technology sectors that is expected to exceed the capacity of the region's existing single 500-kV transmission line from Prince George to Terrace.
The Canada Infrastructure Bank provided a CAD 42 million (approx. USD 30.7 million) repayable loan to George Gordon Development Limited (GGDL), the economic-development arm of George Gordon First Nation, to fund the Wicehtowak Solar project — a 32.4 MW solar facility in the Rural Municipality of Dufferin, Saskatchewan. The loan enables GGFN to acquire full ownership of the project, which will supply Saskatchewan's grid under a 30-year virtual power purchase agreement with SaskPower and deliver power directly to the adjacent K+S Potash Canada mine. Natural Resources Canada separately provided a CAD 33 million grant under the Smart Renewables Electrification Pathways Program toward the same project.
On 23 October 2025, Canada's federal Canada Growth Fund (CGF) and the Government of Ontario's Building Ontario Fund (BOF) announced an equity commitment agreement to finance the Darlington New Nuclear Project (DNNP) small modular reactor (SMR) build, led by Ontario Power Generation (OPG). CGF committed up to CAD 2 billion (USD 1.43bn) for a 15% minority stake and BOF committed up to CAD 1 billion (USD 713.5m) for a 7.5% minority stake, with OPG remaining majority owner and operator. The combined CAD 3 billion package funds construction of four grid-scale SMRs — the first commercial SMR deployment among G7 nations — targeting first-unit grid connection by end-2030.
The Canada Infrastructure Bank closed a CAD 24 million (approx. USD 18 million) loan to the Onimiskiw Opitciwan Limited Partnership, owned by the Atikamekw of Opitciwan First Nation in Northern Quebec, to build and operate a 4.8-megawatt biomass cogeneration facility. The plant will burn bark, sawdust and woodchips from an adjacent sawmill to generate electricity and process steam, displacing an estimated 4.6 million litres of diesel per year and cutting over 11,000 tonnes of emissions annually for the remote, diesel-dependent community of 2,500 people.
The Canada Infrastructure Bank committed CAD 108.3 million (approx. USD 78.9 million) to the 102.2-megawatt Mesgi'g Ugju's'n 2 (MU2) wind farm in the Gespe'gewa'gi (Gaspesie-Iles-de-la-Madeleine) region of Quebec. The financing comprises a CAD 15.8 million equity loan to the Mi'gmawei Mawiomi Business Corporation (MMBC) — CIB's first Indigenous equity loan in Quebec — and a CAD 92.5 million construction loan for the project as a whole. MU2 is a partnership between MMBC, representing the Gesgapegiag, Gespeg and Listuguj Mi'gmaq communities, and Innergex Renewable Energy Inc., with a 30-year power purchase agreement with Hydro-Quebec.
The Canada Infrastructure Bank closed a CAD 97 million (approx. USD 70.7 million) loan to finance the 84-megawatt Wedgeport Wind project in the Municipal District of Argyle, Nova Scotia. The project is a partnership between Elemental Energy, Stevens Wind and Sipekne'katik First Nation (SFN), and comprises 12 Nordex seven-megawatt turbines built under Nova Scotia's Rate Based Procurement process. It is CIB's second partnership with Elemental Energy and SFN following an earlier Nova Scotia wind deal.
