This tool kit has been created to assist Nova Scotia municipalities and transit organizations in working with the Canada-Nova Scotia Infrastructure Secretariat to promote projects that support healthy, vibrant, sustainable communities.

If your organization has received funding from the federal government through the Canada-Nova Scotia Agreements on Gas Tax Fund and Public Transit Fund, there are many resources available on this site for your information.

This information will help you meet the communication obligations included in the agreements (Municipal Funding Agreement and the Transit Funding Agreement). Take a few minutes to explore the links and discover the resources available to you.

Please Contact Us about any events and announcements you’re considering (for example, a sod turning, or official opening).
