Backgrounder

This month, the Government of Canada delivered the first of two annual $22 million federal Gas Tax Fund (GTF) installments to New Brunswick. In total, the province will be provided with over $45 million this year through the fund. From that, over $35.8 million will be distributed to local governments on a per capita basis while the rest will be allocated in unincorporated areas. The funding, which flows through the provincial government, is now available to support community infrastructure projects.
