CBC New Brunswick link: Saint John gets climate change money to move infrastructure to higher ground
The federal government will spend $11.9 million help repair or move critical Saint John infrastructure to deal with rising sea levels and floods associated with climate change.
“Climate change is real, it’s happening, it’s man-made,” said Marco Mendicino, parliamentary secretary to the minister of infrastructure and communities.
“And if we don’t do disaster mitigation projects like this one, people of Saint John are going to be very exposed and vulnerable.”
