The governments of Canada and Saskatchewan, alongside the Métis Nation-Saskatchewan (MN-S), are investing a total of $3.26 million to construct 12 new energy-efficient tiny homes in Buffalo Narrows, La Loche, and Cumberland House. The project includes $1.5 million in joint federal-provincial funding through the Rental Development Program and the National Housing Strategy - Saskatchewan Priorities Initiative, complemented by a $1.58 million contribution from MN-S. Led by Métis Nation-Saskatchewan, the development will provide affordable rental housing for single low-income Métis citizens and Elders, with construction slated for completion by spring 2027.
