The governments of Canada and Saskatchewan have announced the investment of over $13.5 million for nine infrastructure projects across the province. These projects are aimed to support communities, enhance green infrastructure, and promote sustainability.
“Reliable infrastructure is key to building thriving communities where people want to live and grow,” said Federal Minster Sean Fraser. “Investments like the ones made today will enhance water systems, encourage wellness, and support Indigenous heritage, fostering inclusive, sustainable communities.
Three of the nine infrastructure projects announced are for First Nations. Pheasant Rump Nakota First Nation will be building a 7,800-square-foot Indigenous Cultural Centre. Features include a rooftop patio and arbour connecting to Nakota lands.
White Bear First Nation will build an all-ages spray park and Pasqua First Nation will construct a new community centre.
