Cape Breton Canso MP Mike Kelloway called it a transformation announcement.

 

 

Kelloway said Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was set to meet with German officials this week, noting the funding announcement will be a big part of the conversation. He said he looks forward to the future developments that will come from this announcement and, hopefully, more announcements.

 

When one looks at where we are heading with green hydrogen in Northern Eastern Nova Scotia and Cape Breton, Kelloway called it is a team effort.
