As Meaford Council announced its pre-development agreement with TCE Energy for the proposed pumped storage project, the community continues to call for transparency. The agreement, which will give the municipality up to $3.2 million over the next three years, includes 4 funding streams. A community support payment of $1 million annually funded by TCE, municipal capacity funding of up to $250,000 annually through provincial pre-development funding, scholarships totaling $25,000 annually funded by TCE, and a community investment fund matching up to $80,000 annually, also funded by TC Energy.

The government says the increase will benefit more than 700,000 workers across the province.

The annual increase is tied to Ontario's consumer price index at 1.9%. And Joshua Kutrick is just hours away from becoming the next Canadian space traveler.

She says it's important to see international collaboration at a time when there are intense trade wars and geopolitical tensions.
