Roads to Resources Program
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Roads to Resources Program was initiated by the Progressive Conservative government of Prime Minister of Canada John Diefenbaker from 1957 to 1963.
The program was intended to complete transportation infrastructure in remote areas of Canada to facilitate easier access to minerals and encourage their exploitation.
Roads started or completed under the program:
- Dempster Highway, Yukon Highway 5
- Nahanni Range Road, Yukon Highway 10
