Four coastal First Nations communities are receiving $486,000 for clean energy projects as part of a funding partnership between the Province of British Columbia, Government of Canada and New Relationship Trust.

Protecting people from the effects of COVID-19 and laying the groundwork for a safe recovery and an even brighter future guided the government’s work in the legislative session that ended Friday, Aug. 14, 2020.

The Province is accepting applications from local governments, First Nations, Indigenous organizations, not-for-profit and for-profit organizations throughout British Columbia for investments in clean-energy projects.
