Canada and PEI support investments to Montague Curling Club ahead of the 2023 Canada Winter Games

Today, the Honourable Lawrence MacAulay, Minister of Veterans Affairs and Associate Minister of National Defence; the Honourable Cory Deagle, Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure, and Thomas Annear, President of the Montague Curling Club, announced over $264,000 in joint funding for upgrades to the Montague Curling Club in Three Rivers.

The funding announced today will enhance the building’s accessibility features for all users ahead of the 2023 Canada Winter Games. Improvements include the addition of a ramp at the entrance, upgrades to the back exit as well as the addition of a new elevator. Funding will also support upgrades to the facility’s ice-making equipment to ensure athletes have access to safer and smoother ice conditions.

Once completed, the facility will offer a welcoming venue for athletes and visitors and encourage residents to stay active for generations to come.

By investing in infrastructure, the Government of Canada is growing our country’s economy, increasing the resiliency of our communities, and improving the lives of Canadians.
