Ottawa’s two billion trees plan cost $488M and missed target by 89%

Ottawa spent nearly half a billion dollars on its now-cancelled Two Billion Trees Program, only to fall dramatically short of its own planting goal, according to federal records tabled in Parliament.

Blacklock’s Reporter says documents from the Department of Natural Resources show the program cost $487,891,090 before it was wound down on November 4, missing its target by 89%.
