Today, Darrell Samson, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Veterans Affairs and Associate Minister of National Defence and Member of Parliament for Sackville-Preston-Chezzetcook, and His Worship Mike Savage, Mayor of Halifax Regional Municipality, announced a joint investment of $5 million to rehabilitate over 555 metres of shoreline along Shore Road.
This project will use natural infrastructure to support the restoration of coastal ecosystems, improve the quality of stormwater flowing to the ocean and reduce coastal erosion.
Natural infrastructure leverages ecosystems to improve communities' quality of life, reduce pollution, enhance biodiversity and habitats, and build resilience to climate change.
By investing in infrastructure, the Government of Canada is growing our country's economy, increasing the resiliency of our communities, and improving the lives of Canadians.
