In light of the upcoming release of Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s provincial budget, we would like to highlight the success of the programs managed by the CPRQ and emphasize that an increase in public investment\u00a0will be essential in ensuring the preservation of our precious heritage, which mobilizes our communities.<\/p>\n

In 2024, we received almost 250 applications for financial assistance amounting to\u00a087M$, within the scope of our aid programs for the restoration of religious cultural heritage and for the repurposing of underutilized houses of worship. The budget available for responding to this demand amounted to only 25M$. We are currently awaiting directives from the Ministry of Culture and Communications concerning the 2025-2026 iteration of our programs.<\/p>\n

We invite you to read and share this opinion letter published in Le Devoir on March 17, 2025<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
