Tweed Welcomes Prime Minister Stephen Harper Brandon - March 22, 2010 – Merv Tweed, Member of Parliament for Brandon-Souris, welcomed Prime Minister Stephen Harper to Brandon.The Prime Minister was in Brandon to announce $5.31 Million Dollars in Federal Government funding for the new Brandon University Healthy Living Centre project, which will see a new recreational centre built on campus. “We are very fortunate to have a Prime Minister who understands that strong communities mean strong provinces and a strong country,” said Tweed. “I was thrilled when I learned of Mr. Harper’s intention to travel to Brandon to make this announcement personally.” Funding will be provided under the Major Infrastructure Component of the Building Canada Fund. These projects are selected through a Federal-Provincial negotiation process. All projects are required to meet specific Federal requirements.“This announcement is confirmation of our Government’s commitment to the Brandon-Souris constituency,” said Tweed. “This facility will benefit not only Brandon but the entire Westman area for many years.” |
