Canada Investment Bolsters Safe, Strong Communities
The Government of Canada is delivering over $63.2 million to Nova Scotia 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, in the Halifax Regional Municipality, CCBF funding contributed to the construction of the Halifax Central Common Pool, creating space for outdoor, recreational swimming, classes and poolside relaxation.
The Canada Community-Building Fund provides communities with the flexibility to strategically address present and future infrastructure needs.
