"Immediately secure a new large ferry to serve both the Bell Island–Portugal Cove and Fogo Island–Change Island–Farewell routes. With capacity for approximately 200 passengers and 70 vehicles, this vessel will provide the province with a properly sized and dependable swing vessel to maintain service during maintenance or mechanical issues, ending the Liberal practice of shuffling ferries between routes and sparking community frustration." — pcnl.ca, retrieved 2025-10-06

"Develop a long-term fleet renewal strategy to replace three aging provincial ferries with modern, dependable vessels. The plan will also include stronger preventative maintenance measures to reduce breakdowns and ensure consistent service.

"To deliver the infrastructure people deserve, we will introduce a Newfoundland and Labrador Infrastructure Act —a strong legislative framework that supports transparent, long-term capital planning. We’ll ensure people get the infrastructure they deserve— investments that strengthen communities, support economic activity, and create lasting prosperity - while doing so with fiscal responsibility in mind. Long-term infrastructure planning will empower long-term financial planning while focusing on growing the local workforce and keeping more of the economic benefits here at home. This Act will utilize local community benefits agreements to grow the local workforce, provide opportunity, and keep more of the economic value from these projects here at home." — For All of Us, retrieved 2025-10-08

"Require local community benefits agreements for all natural resource projects and public infrastructure contracts valued over $500,000. This will ensure the principal beneficiary of our resources will always be the people of our province. This will prioritize the hiring of local skilled trade workers, awarding of contracts to local companies, and opportunity for apprentices and underrepresented groups such as women, gender diverse individuals, and Indigenous workers. Projects will be required to employ a minimum of 10% apprentices. In partnership with industry and trades unions, we will work towards the benchmarks outlined by TradesNL." — For All of Us, retrieved 2025-10-08
