From the Niagara Falls Review:
Ottawa’s in. The federal government will contribute one-third of the $100-million cost to build the Niagara Convention and Civic Centre, Niagara Falls MP Rob Nicholson announced Wednesday.
“There is no doubt in my mind this will help strengthen the economy of this area,” Nicholson said during a press conference Wednesday afternoon. “This is that other piece of the puzzle we want to have … We need to have a facility that can handle large conventions.
“We are a perfect fit.”
