Highway 88 Deficiencies
Highway 88 is becoming increasingly unsafe, and there is no substantive provincial plan to improve it despite its status as a vital economic corridor.
Marten Beach Flooding
Recurring fooding events have damaged homes, displaced residents and curtailed public use of Marten Beach. We must step up and safeguard this community.

To support existing operations and attract new industry, we need the Province to prioritize improvements to the economic corridor infrastructure.
Smith Bridge Rebuild
The Smith Bridge is six years past its engineered life span. The time to rebuild is now, and we're working with the Province to prioritize the required funding.
