Proposals sought to tap 110 million softwood aid fund
Prince George says BC communities can apply for a 110 million national softwood dispute relief fund announced last year. Mayor Colin Kinsley leads a BC advisory group to pick projects for Ottawa, with proposals due by June and funding possibly by summer. Dozens of northern BC towns qualify, including Prince George and Valemount, while McBride and Mackenzie are excluded. The fund aims at value added wood, tourism, film, infrastructure, and diversification, with Valemount pursuing a gondola project and airport upgrade to attract tourists.
