The allocation includes $305 million for housing and post-secondary education initiatives. New Brunswick has committed not to raise any fees or taxes that could limit housing supply. The province has designated $155 million of the funds specifically for health infrastructure projects. The Dr. Georges-L.-Dumont University Hospital in Moncton, New Brunswick, is set to receive $25.7 million for endoscopy modernization and expansion, along with $1 million for future planning. This funding is sourced from Ottawa's $51-billion Build Communities Strong Fund, introduced in the 2025 federal budget. \"Canada and New Brunswick are making strategic investments that will help unlock new housing, strengthen post-secondary education and support modern, reliable health infrastructure,\" stated Federal Internal Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc.",
