The federal government officially initiates the process of expropriation of property owners affected by the route of the Lac-Mégantic railway bypass. A stage described as “difficult” by the Minister of Transport, Omar Alghabra.
In a press release issued on Saturday, the minister indicated that the project is now at a “crucial” moment since the government hopes to start work as soon as possible. July 6, 2023 will mark the 10e anniversary of the tragedy.
