More money for Downtown Revitalization

Another big chunk of cash for the downtown revitalization project.

This morning, the federal government presented a cheque for two million dollars for phase two of the project.

Finance minister Jim Flaherty was on hand to make the announcement and says the funding comes from their federal stimulus package.

Flaherty also announced 375 thousand dollars for the Lake of the Woods Business Incentive Corporation to carry out its work as a community development corporation.
