Alberta and Ottawa have signed a deal to fund water and wastewater infrastructure for housing, providing over $510 million in federal funding over eight years. The agreement was announced by the prime minister and the provincial premier in Red Deer, marking a key step in improving housing conditions across the province. The funding will support municipalities in upgrading essential infrastructure, addressing long-standing challenges in water and sewage systems. This initiative aims to enhance the quality of life for residents, particularly in areas where infrastructure has not kept pace with population growth. The collaboration between federal and provincial governments highlights a shared commitment to sustainable development and community well-being. (globalnews.ca)
