“With the Territorial Development Fund (FDT), we would like to support the economic and social development of our territory,’’ says Raymond Durocher, MRC warden. “We favour long-term development projects
that take into consideration the needs of the community.”
The Territorial Development Fund (FDT) is a result of an agreement between the MRC Pontiac and the Ministry of Municipal Affairs (MAMOT). The goal of the fund is to create and maintain jobs and/or promote the revitalisation of living environments in various sectors, such as: agriculture, forestry, tourism, social and community,
culture, and heritage.
