The National Historic Site, where the 1864 meetings that led to Canadian Confederation took place, has been under restoration for more than a decade and is expected to reopen to the public in fall 2026. Parks Canada is overseeing the $138-million project, whose cost has risen because of structural challenges and pandemic disruptions. Photo by Vanessa Tignanelli/The Globe & Mail
