Saskatoon, Sask. – The federal and provincial governments have announced more than $53.9 million in joint funding for 46 Saskatchewan projects – including 41 drinking water and wastewater projects – through the Small Communities Fund.
Funding for these projects will help upgrade and expand water and wastewater systems, and enhance local roads, Infrastructure Canada said in a news release.
