While the Prime Minister visited beautiful Dartmouth today, we announced an additional $300 million fund to support businesses and communities impacted by Hurricane Fiona.
Across Atlantic Canada and into Eastern Quebec, so many communities are deeply impacted by this brutal storm.
Although the Government of Canada already covers up to 90% of provincial expenses following disasters, some businesses and communities may slip through the cracks—that’s where the Hurricane Fiona Recovery Fund comes in!
The Hurricane Fiona Recovery Fund will support recovery efforts such as:
Helping local communities and businesses rebuild and recover more quickly from the impacts of Hurricane Fiona.
Restoring the economic activity that local communities depend on by beginning to repair and rebuild critical infrastructure, including fishing wharves and small craft harbours that were damaged or destroyed by the storm. Repairs will ensure that the infrastructure is better able to withstand any future damage.
Ensuring the safety of navigation and protecting marine wildlife.
