The federal government is investing more than 730 thousand dollars to three areas of the city.

Over 480 thousand dollars will go to Science North to implement online ticket sales which will be running in the new year, and as CEO Guy Labine tells us it will fully pay off the state of the art Laser Technology at IMAX.

150 thousand dollars will go to Place Des Arts to raise awareness and inform the public about the upcoming downtown art project.

And 100 thousand dollars will go to the city to renovate the courtyard at Tom Davies Square as part of the Canada 150 Infrastructure Program.
