The Legacy Fund for the Environment (LFE) supported the Collateral Victims Coalition (CVC) in its legal and advocacy efforts against the proposed Lac-Mégantic rail bypass. The project threatens to destroy approximately 100 hectares of wetlands and endanger a major confined aquifer in the region. LFE has entered into a funding agreement with the CVC to help cover legal and related expenses, with contributions matched to funds raised by the coalition.
