Saskatchewan has set out to double the irrigable land in the province by investing more than $4 billion toward a generational project at Lake Diefenbaker.
The project — which is expected to be completed in 10 years — will be built over three phases and will cost around $4 billion, the government of Saskatchewan says.
Premier Scott Moe said Thursday that the project “will be a massive step in completing the goals” the government has set out to grow the province by 2030.
