Manitoba towns seek bonds for self liquidating projects
Thomas Green notes Manitoba towns face financing barriers for sewer and water upgrades while Alberta has funded self liquidating projects through the Self Liquidating Projects Act. Alberta loans surpassed 21 million by 1954, backing municipal buildings and utilities. Alberta towns such as Bashaw and Red Deer benefited from 18 new sewer and water systems, while Manitoba residents argue their government could back debentures to finance municipal services.
