As Come Home 2022 draws to a close, the Honourable Krista Lynn Howell, Minister of Municipal and Provincial Affairs, is congratulating communities across the province for their participation and contributions in making the celebration a success.
To support communities in preparing for Come Home Year, the Municipal Come Home Year Celebration Grant was created. It provided $355,000 in grants to municipalities and Inuit Community Governments to help them prepare for Come Home Year celebrations.
As part of Come Home 2022, special events took place in over 170 communities, ranging from concerts, theatre, sporting and comedy events, to music festivals and events celebrating diversity.

“Municipalities played a key role in the success of Come Home 2022. Through the Municipal Come Home Year Celebration Grant, communities across the province embraced, planned and lead initiatives like beautification projects, new signage, created rest and picnic sites, installed stage areas for performances and a host of other projects. Thank you for your enthusiasm, leadership and contributions in making Come Home 2022 such a huge success.”
