The Government of Canada is delivering over $18.75 million to invest in priority infrastructure projects that will support stronger and more connected communities in Prince Edward Island.
“Building a strong Canada starts with building strong communities. This investment will boost infrastructure projects that support housing and will keep our communities connected. We are proud to invest in the critical infrastructure that helps advance local priorities and supports long-term growth across the Island,” said Heath MacDonald, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food and MP for Malpeque.
The announcement was held at the Stratford Waterfront Park, a key community infrastructure project, that has received more than $890,000 in funding from the Canada Community-Building Fund (CCBF).
“The Canada Community Building Fund supports 57 municipal governments across Prince Edward Island to build their infrastructure priorities and improve the quality of life for everyone,” said Ernie Hudson, Prince Edward Island Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure.
“The Canada Community-Building Fund plays a vital role in helping communities like Stratford develop and strengthen the infrastructure that supports our growth, sustainability, and quality of life. Thanks to funding support from the Government of Canada, we are not only responding to the needs of our community today, but also laying the foundation for a vibrant future for the generations who will call Stratford home,” said Steve Ogden, Mayor of Stratford.
