Canada-Saskatchewan Municipal Rural Infrastructure Fund

The Government of Canada is investing $38 million in municipal infrastructure projects across Saskatchewan over the next four years through the Canada-Saskatchewan Municipal Rural Infrastructure Fund (C-S MRIF). 

Participating communities contribute half the cost of a project.  The Fund sets aside up to 20 per cent of its resources for projects in Saskatoon and Regina.  It provides $4 million for northern Saskatchewan communities.  To date, about $91 million has been announced for 91 projects.  The federal government has provided more than $12.9 million.
