Public recreation centres are at the heart of communities across Canada, and give residents spaces to come together for various activities.

Today, Michael McLeod, Member of Parliament for Northwest Territories, on behalf of the Honourable Dan Vandal, Minister of Northern Affairs, PrairiesCan and CanNor, announced that the Government of Canada has invested over $472,000 in a project by the City of Yellowknife to reduce barriers at two local recreational facilities to ensure they are more accessible to visitors and residents.

This project helped improve community access to recreational facilities that are open to all ages and abilities, meeting the long-term needs of this northern community.
