Today, the Honourable Dominic LeBlanc, Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs, Infrastructure and Communities, the Honourable Réjean Savoie, Minister responsible for the Regional Development Corporation, and His Worship Adam Lordon, Mayor of the City of Miramichi, announced joint funding of more than $67M to support the construction of a new wellness multiplex in Miramichi.
The new complex will replace six aging and deteriorating recreation facilities within the community. The multiplex will feature a six-lane, 25-metre pool and a separate leisure pool, an 1,800-seat arena, an indoor walking track, a gymnasium, and a multi-use community space including a kitchen.
This project will improve community members' access to community infrastructure that serves people of all ages and abilities, helping to meet the community's long-term needs.
By investing in infrastructure, the Government of Canada is growing our country's economy, building resilient communities, and improving the lives of Canadians.
