The North Glengarry Prescott Russell (NGPR) Transport Board, composed of representatives of the member municipalities, was the incorporated public body responsible for the transit service which was operated by private contractors. Initial funding for this project was provided by the counties of Prescott-Russell and Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry with operating costs being covered by the Village of Casselman, Township of North Glengarry and The Nation Municipality, the communities being served.[1]

gollark: <@670756765859708965> There's a mod called NuclearCraft.
gollark: It's too far away to be very useful.
gollark: Consider the difficulty of having to collect then dispose of/recycle "spent" solar panels ~30 years after deployment.
gollark: One problem with solar/wind is that (like most things) they degrade over time (lithium ion batteries, which you could end up needing many of, especially fast), and would be in remote locations in huge quantities...
gollark: Nuclear also doesn't take up much land, and could be way more efficient than it already is if it was actually deployed at scale and new technologies got used.
