Cape Breton Deserves a Better Deal

A Nova Scotia Liberal government will invest $300M over four years to spur economic development and infrastructure growth in the Cape Breton Regional Municipality. This funding will be used to address the following:

  • Improving the CBRM’s infrastructure,
  • Growing the CBRM’s economy,
  • Improving opportunities for CBRM workers,
  • Alleviating the CBRM’s housing crisis,
  • Improving transit in CBRM, and
  • Building capital projects that will have a long-term impact on Cape Breton.

We will also commit to one-on-one negotiations with the CBRM regarding a CBRM municipal charter, which takes into account their unique economic, social, and equalization circumstances.

Cost estimate: Total cost: $75M/year
