Backgrounder: Yukoners to benefit from 16 local infrastructure projects across the territory
Backgrounder
The Government of Canada will support 16 projects throughout Yukon, including infrastructure improvements to fire halls and public works buildings, as well as green infrastructure and recreation facilities.
We are investing more than $98.3 million in these projects through the Community, Culture and Recreation Infrastructure Stream (CCRIS), the Rural and Northern Communities Infrastructure Stream (RNIS) and the Green Infrastructure Stream (GIS) of the Investing in Canada infrastructure plan, as well as the Small Communities Fund (SCF).
