Talking Points<\/h4>\n\n\nCanada’s northern regions, including Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut, are set to benefit from significant funding commitments under the national infrastructure plan. Iqaluit, Hay River, and Whitehorse will receive investments aimed at rehabilitating critical infrastructure.<\/p>\n
Iqaluit will receive $108 million to enhance its water infrastructure, focusing on the utilidor system and trucked water services, enabling the construction of 2,500 new housing units. Hay River will get $20 million for a new water treatment plant, replacing a facility built in the 1970s, with construction starting in 2027. Whitehorse will receive $8.7 million for a five-kilometre paved bike path linking Whistle Bend to downtown.<\/p>\n
