Part of this major investment includes extensive reconstruction work on the walls of the Lachine Canal and an investment that will include the construction of service areas and footpaths for the Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue Canal.

According to Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue Mayor Paola Hawa this has been in the works for more than a year.

“We made pests of ourselves to the Federal Government,” Hawa said with a big smile. “This is what Sainte-Annes is all about. My focus is to continuously improve our city and show visitors how unique we are.”

“I would like to extend a special thank you to our local for Lac St. Louis, MP Francis Scarpaleggia who too the ball over the line on this project,” Hawa said.
