CCL, LADR and CCRC

This weekend marks an interesting event: the annual Combined Councils of Labrador meeting. This year the event is being held in Port Hope Simpson and MNL is tagging on a LADR workshop for the attendees. As is becoming usual for these events the CCRC is hosting a panel on cooperation and economic development as one of the sessions.

Each LADR workshop is designed to address specific concerns of the region it is based in and the South coast of Labrador is no exception. There will be a session on small towns and gas tax funding, general economic development and cooperation options.

It is quite appropriate that the CCRC be presenting since the CCL is one of the oldest and geographically largest cooperative effort in the province. No doubt the LADR workshop and the CCL AGM will continue the development of communities throughout Labrador.
