The Government of Canada is delivering over $50 million to New Brunswick this year to create communities that are stronger and more connected.
Our communities can only grow to support more housing when there are investments in foundational infrastructure projects - like public transit, water systems, and local roads and bridges. With today's announcement, that is exactly what the Government of Canada is delivering on.
With the funding announced today, communities can build both the essential and recreational infrastructure that allows families in Canada to thrive.
For example, the Town of Quispamsis is using their Canada Community-Building Fund allocation to continue upgrading the aging lift station at 565 Gondola Point Road. This sanitary infrastructure project will improve wastewater capacity for a growing population, protect the community against flooding and provide safer, more efficient service for years to come.
The Canada Community-Building Fund provides communities with the flexibility to strategically address present and future infrastructure needs.
