Description

The Investing in Canada Plan (IICP, or the Plan) is a key element to address Canada’s aging infrastructure and rebuild the nation for the 21st Century, with investments of more than $180 billion over 12 years. Through the IICP, the Government of Canada has made historic new investments in infrastructure providing communities across the country with the tools they need to prosper and innovate.

These investments are creating long-term economic growth, building inclusive, sustainable communities and supporting a low carbon, green economy.

The initial phase of the Plan, announced in Budget 2016, focused on laying a foundation in the short term by accelerating existing federal infrastructure investments and providing $14.4 billion in additional funding for the rehabilitation, repair, and modernization of existing infrastructure. Budget 2017 built on this foundation with $81.2 billion in new funding, to be delivered over 11 years, starting in 2017-18. In addition, over $92 billion is being delivered through Government of Canada’s existing programs - programs that pre-date the Investing in Canada Plan.

Governance Structure

Governance committees are supported by Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada, as the lead department for the initiative. The Deputy Ministers’ Coordinating Committee (DMCC), is chaired by the Deputy Minister of Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada. The aim of the DMCC is to ensure interdepartmental coordination and oversight at the most senior officials level for the IICP, and to support the Minister of Housing, Infrastructure, and Communities to report to Cabinet and the Prime Minister. A Directors General Issues Management Committee acts as a steering committee for the horizontal governance of the IICP.

Planning Highlights

Going into 2025-26, the Horizontal Initiative Table provides a full picture of the Investing in Canada Plan’s progress and results, including reporting on all programs. The 12-year Investing in Canada Plan began in 2016 and has progressed into the advanced implementation stage. As of December 2024, more than 80% of the Plan’s funding has been committed, more than 50% has been spent across 100,000 approved projects, and many of its programs are complete or soon to be completed. Significant progress has been made towards the Plan’s strategic objectives and expected outcomes, and the Plan is scheduled for completion in 2028.

The evaluation assessed the relevance and preliminary performance of HPS related to the reduction and prevention of homelessness across Canada. Findings were generally positive, indicating that within the resources available and through extensive partnerships, the program was addressing some of the highest priority needs of those experiencing homelessness in Canada. The findings also revealed that there was a strong continued need for a program that supports the integrated efforts of communities using new approaches to address issues of homelessness. Recommendations from the evaluation were incorporated into the design and development of Reaching Home, which launched on April 1, 2019. Publicly-available results for the HPS can be found in the ESDC DRR for 2018-19 (https://www.canada.ca/en/employment-social-development/corporate/reports/departmental-results/2018-2019.html)

The CSIF emphasized public-private partnerships and effectively identified and implemented large-scale, strategic infrastructure projects consistent with the objectives of the programs and the priorities of the federal, provincial, territorial and municipal governments involved. For outcomes that relate to quality of life, economic growth, or reduced GHG emissions or other climate change objectives, it is expected that the data will be available several years following the completion of a project. Further information about CSIF results will be reflected in the Horizontal Initiatives table of the 2024-25 Departmental Results Report.

The total allocation for the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP) under the IICP was originally announced as $33.1B by Finance Canada in Budget 2017. ICIP’s total allocation is presented as $31.6 billion in this document to account for funding subsequently transferred from ICIP to other programs under the IICP such as $540 million in ICIP operating costs.

Social Infrastructure is focused on improving human capabilities and quality of life for Canadians.

At the time of the Investing in Canada Plan’s inception, Canada’s Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) was 30% below 2005 levels by 2030, and IICP programs were designed to contribute to achieving this target. In July 2021, the Minister of Environment and Climate Change submitted Canada’s enhanced Nationally Determined Contribution to the UNFCCC for a new national target of 40-45% below 2005 levels by 2030.

Between 2016 and 2017, the first year of the Investing in Canada Plan, annual public transit ridership per capita rose 27.5%. Ridership levels stayed relatively stable at approximately 90 linked trips per year until 2020 when the Covid-19 pandemic struck and ridership declined 42%. Going forward, the IICP will target 2020 levels as the "new normal"; however, ridership will likely be highly impacted for future years due to a variety of different exogeneous factors (e.g., fear of the virus, remote work, affordability, recession, inflation, etc.).
