The release does not provide a unit count for the equipment, production-capacity target or expected sales increase, so the award should be read as an investment plan, not a measured productivity gain.","Allain Equipment Manufacturing in Notre-Dame was awarded CAD$700,000 for an automated storage system and advanced laser-cutting technology.

Across the national Regional Tariff Response Initiative, the release cites a total federal envelope of CAD$3.45 billion; ACOA is delivering CAD$269.5 million in Atlantic Canada.
