17 South Shore harbours will be receiving some money from the Federal Government. South Shore- St. Margaret's MP Gerald Keddy says the funding will go towards harbour maintenance and dredging projects. Bush Island, Fox Point, Indian Point, and Mill Cove are among the communities Keddy hopes will see a strengthened economy and new jobs in the commercial fishery as a result of the improvements. The money is coming from Canada's Economic Action Plan. Nova Scotia will see about 40 million dollars of the 200 million the government set aside for similar projects across the country.
