The Canadian government will allocate up to $145 million for security during the upcoming World Cup, Canada’s Minister of Public Safety announced Wednesday.
Thirteen matches will take place in Toronto and Vancouver during the June 11 to July 19 tournament, which Canada is co-hosting with the U.S. and Mexico.
“This funding will support provinces and municipalities in their efforts to ensure people stay safe while enjoying the tournament, and ensure law enforcement agencies have the resources they need to host a safe and well-managed event,” Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree said at a news conference in Toronto.
Toronto will get about $45 million of the money, while $100 million will be set aside for Vancouver.
The investment builds on the $220 million the federal government has already allocated to Canadian host cities.
Ottawa previously allocated $320 million to organize the tournament. (
