College, towns receive stimulus funding $17.7 M
September 7, 2009
St. Clair College received more than $5 million in federal funding for an enhanced journalism program Wednesday and Amherstburg and LaSalle received nearly $13 million for infrastructure renewal and tree planting.
The $17.7 million in funding, taken from the new Southern Ontario Community Adjustment Fund, was announced by Essex Conservative MP Jeff Watson just one day after federal Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff triggered talk of a fall election.
"Our goal is to more than just create jobs now, it's to create jobs in a repositioned and diversified economy for tomorrow and beyond," said Watson at an 11 a.m. news conference on a roof-top terrace of the college's downtown campus.
