Provincial government announces $35 million to help tourism, event operators
Tourism operators in Saskatchewan struggling to make ends meet can apply for some financial relief soon.
Trade and Export Development Minister Jeremy Harrison and Tourism Minister Gene Makowsky announced $35 million in one-time, non-repayable funding Monday, including $5 million that will go towards marketing operations.
The money will come from the Saskatchewan Tourism Sector Support Program.
The rest of the money will be for the accommodation sector and large-event facilities, along with attraction and tour operators.
