Restoring 24 Sussex Drive | Montreal News
Description
The Prime Minister’s historic residence, 24 Sussex Drive, is getting a $50 million makeover — and Canadians are already rallying behind it. After sitting vacant for over a decade, the iconic home is sparking national pride, with a crowdfunding campaign already raising $54,000 from 200 donors averaging $250 each. Donations are capped at $5 million per person, tax-deductible for individuals and charities, but not corporations. PM Mark Carney calls it a “moonshot,” hinting the public will fund most — if not all — of the cost, while keeping the full budget under wraps. A national design competition will shape the restoration, with experts crafting the plan and budget, and security costs covered by the government. Donor transparency is a priority, and with the public showing strong early support, this $50 million dream may just become reality.
