PROVINCE PROVIDES ALMOST $6 MILLION TO WATERSHED DISTRICTS PROGRAM

The Manitoba government will provide $5.873 million, an increase of $353,000 over previous years, to support watershed districts, Agriculture and Resource Development Minister Blaine Pedersen announced today. “Our government recognizes the tremendous value watershed districts provide, and the role they play in building climate resiliency and delivering GROW,” said Pedersen. “We are showing our support through this increase in funding, which will allow districts to expand into municipalities that are not currently participating in the program.”
