QUÉBEC — Quebec Premier François Legault has outlined what he calls his new economic vision for the province.

During the inaugural speech in the national assembly, Legault said his government will table a new bill to accelerate approvals for major, strategic projects.

He says he will also ask the province’s largest pension fund manager to increase the share of its investments in the Quebec economy.

Legault says he has instructed his finance minister to find ways to help Quebecers struggling with inflation and the rising cost of living, though he offered few details.
