McMurray Métis Centre Back on Track | Canada News

After a four-year stall and ballooning costs from $22 million to nearly $73 million, construction is finally restarting on the McMurray Métis Cultural Centre — a vital community hub featuring classrooms, a museum, and an art gallery. Originally delayed by pandemic inflation and added features like a theatre and lookout tower, the project was nearly scrapped at $115–125 million. New leadership slashed costs by removing the carbon-neutral boiler and securing funding from municipal, provincial, federal, and private sources. Despite uncertainty, stakeholders are optimistic — and wisely chose to begin work now to avoid further price hikes.
