Ten projects in 8 communities will share $4.3 million in federal, provincial and municipal funding aimed at disaster mitigation efforts such as shoreline protection and erosion controls. Federal Rural Economic Development and ACOA Minister Gudie Hutchings says this money will be used to help protect homes, roadways, municipal parks, and water and wastewater infrastructure from shoreline erosion and extreme weather events. Transportation and Infrastructure Minister John Abbott says these projects are necessary to protect critical infrastructure from storm surges and will serve as long-term solutions to prevent coastal erosion.
