The governments of Canada and Quebec are working together to provide Quebecers access to sustainable and safe facilities that promote recreational and sports activities in our communities.
Today, the Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry and Member of Parliament for Saint-Maurice-Champlain, the Honorable François-Philippe Champagne, on behalf of the Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs, Infrastructure and Communities, the Honorable Dominic LeBlanc, as well as Ms. Sonia LeBel, President of the Treasury Board and Member of the National Assembly for Champlain, on behalf of the Minister for Education and Minister Responsible for the Status of Women, Ms. Isabelle Charest, announced $51,934 in funding for the development of play structures for children in Sainte-Anne-de-la-Pérade.
The project includes the preparation of the land, the layout of the structures and the playing surface as well as the installation of street furniture and a water fountain.
To carry out this project, the Governments of Canada and Quebec are each contributing $25,967 under the Community, Culture and Recreation Infrastructure Stream (CCRIS) of the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP) and the Programme d'aide financière aux infrastructures récréatives et sportives (PAFIRS). This new infrastructure will contribute to the vitality and development of Sainte-Anne-de-la-Pérade.
