The federal government made a big infrastructure funding announcement yesterday.

It will allocate $14 billion over ten years for upgrades through its ‘Building Canada’ fund.

Stratford Mayor Dan Mathieson says the funding is good news but even better news is the fact that a good chunk of it is set aside specifically for smaller municipalities.
