Rafferty Makes Motion For Legions

A Northwestern Ontario MP wants to give the Royal Canadian Legion easier access to funds for repairs to their buildings. Thunder Bay-Rainy River's John Rafferty is proposing the federal government set up an infrastructure renewal fund that would match whatever dollars Legions' can raise for upgrades. Rafferty made his request in a motion put forward in the House of Commons earlier this week.
