Canadians Fund PM’s Historic Home | Calgary News

Canada’s Prime Minister is rallying the public to help renovate 24 Sussex Drive, the official PM residence, with a $50 million fundraising goal already hitting $735K in under a month from over 3,000 donors. The Rideau Hall Foundation is managing contributions—strictly for Canadian citizens/residents via their site, no cash or crypto—and every donor is publicly listed. This historic home, first occupied by Louis St. Laurent in 1951, has hosted ten PMs since 1943. Beyond funding, a design competition is underway, judged by architect Moshe Safdie, to modernize the landmark while honoring its legacy—with community support at the heart of the effort.
