Ontario donating $150k to Irma relief in hard-hit Caribbean islands
TORONTO — The Ontario government is contributing $150,000 to the Canadian Red Cross to help people in the Caribbean recovering from hurricane Irma.
Premier Kathleen Wynne says in a statement that Irma and its consequences are “a worst nightmare come true” for millions of people.
Wynne also says she has sent a letter to Florida Gov. Rick Scott offering her sympathies and support.
Hydro One employees and equipment are already on their way to Florida to help restore power to millions of Floridians.
