This is big.

Today, our federal Government and the Government of Nova Scotia announced $83 million to build NEW public housing across Nova Scotia.

Like I always say, we’re stronger when we work together.

This funding will build new affordable homes for over 500 families, individuals, and low-income seniors in rural and urban communities across Nova Scotia.

Plus,

The buildings will be energy efficient with rents geared to income (RGI) and operated by the Nova Scotia Provincial Housing Agency (NSPHA). At least 80 units will be totally accessible!

The 222 new housing units will be built on provincially owned land adjacent to existing public housing developments in five regions, including:

  • Halifax Regional Municipality (multiple locations)
  • Bridgewater
  • Kentville
  • Truro
  • Cape Breton (multiple locations)
