Public infrastructure
Description: Implement the Government of Canada’s infrastructure plan to enable strategic investments in core public infrastructure that will create long-term growth; improve the resilience of communities and transition to a clean growth economy and improve social inclusion and the socio-economic outcomes of Canadians. This work is done in partnership with provinces, territories, municipalities, Indigenous communities, other federal departments and agencies, and private sector and not-for-profit organizations. It includes delivering funding to infrastructure projects as well as building capacity for improved asset management and evidence-based planning.
Result 1: Infrastructure projects are funded and supported by Infrastructure Canada
In 2020-21, Infrastructure Canada approved $3.2 billion in funding for 2,396 new infrastructure projects. Supporting thousands of new projects, the Department invested in infrastructure for public transit, major bridges, green initiatives, rural and northern programs, and energy which will make communities more resilient to the effects of climate change. As part of this, Infrastructure Canada continued to support provinces and territories through the ICIP to address needs in these fields. Over $33 billion in funding is being delivered through IBAs signed between Canada and each province and territory through targeted funding streams.
In terms of strengthening rural and northern public infrastructure, $391 million of the $2 billion in federal funding under the Rural and Northern Communities Infrastructure stream was approved for 187 projects in 2020-21. This stream led to investments in the unique and wide-ranging infrastructure priorities of small, rural and remote communities.
Additionally, in 2020-21, $1.9 million in funding was allocated to a project under the $400-million Arctic Energy Fund. This Fund supports energy security in communities in the North, including Indigenous communities, by investing in upgrades to existing fossil fuel-based energy systems as well as supplementing or replacing these systems with renewable energy options.
To get funding out the door quickly, $2.2 billion under the Canada Community-Building Fund (formerly the Gas Tax Fund) was issued to recipients in advance of the regular schedule in order to provide communities with local infrastructure funding as quickly as possible during the COVID-19 pandemic. This funding plays an integral role in helping recipients to address their local infrastructure needs in a flexible and sustainable way. Additionally, in response to the unprecedented economic decline brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, program changes were initiated in August 2020 with the intention of significantly increasing the number of approved infrastructure projects under the ICIP. These changes included the creation of the COVID-19 Resilience stream, the streamlining of program requirements and the expansion of eligibility categories. This provided provinces and territories with added flexibility to fund quick-start, short-term projects that will help communities in their pandemic recovery efforts.
Infrastructure Canada also assisted the Crown Corporations in its portfolio in fulfilling important commitments in 2020-21 and advancing work on the SDCBC; GHIB; Quebec Bridge; the CIB and Waterfront Toronto.
Samuel De Champlain Bridge Corridor
Jacques Cartier and Champlain Bridges Incorporated (JCCBI) continues to operate federally owned bridges in the Montreal area and started deconstruction of the Champlain Bridge in 2020-21. Funding for JCCBI was provided in Budget 2018 for ongoing maintenance and operations until 2022-23. Separate funding was provided in 2018 for the deconstruction project of the Champlain Bridge over a four-year period ending in 2023-24. The SDCBC is in its final configuration with the Corridor fully operational. Outstanding construction work is expected to be completed in 2021-2022, as the project continues to transition to the operations-maintenance-rehabilitation phase. At the same time, implementation of the Réseau express métropolitain in the bridge’s dedicated transit corridor required close, ongoing collaboration between Infrastructure Canada, CDPQ Infra, and the Signature on the Saint Lawrence Group to help meet CDPQ Infra’s objective of operating trains over the bridge in summer 2022.
Gordie Howe International Bridge
The GHIB is in the third year of its six-year design build phase. In 2020-2021, substantial progress was made. Noteworthy examples of project construction progress include the completion of the main bridge tower foundations and the start of above-ground tower construction, as well as substantial completion of site preparation and earthworks on Ports of Entry. Meanwhile, throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Infrastructure Canada supported WDBA to enable the continued safe construction on the project, where Bridging North America celebrated a milestone of 3 million hours of work without a lost time accident, demonstration of the robust safety culture on this international project.
Quebec Bridge
The Pont de Québec file remains a priority for Infrastructure Canada as the Government of Canada understands the strategic, economic and heritage importance of its restoration. The Government of Canada conducted a full review of options on the bridge’s restoration and is continuing to work toward quickly reaching Agreements in Principle with the Canadian National Railway (CN) and the Government of Quebec, including on the sharing of the bridge’s maintenance costs.
Canada Infrastructure Bank
Infrastructure Canada continued to support the CIB in its activities through regular engagement and information-sharing on areas touching advisory and investments, corporate finance, knowledge and research as well as communications and outreach. Infrastructure Canada is also supporting the CIB Growth Plan, helping the CIB in establishing sound governance practices and promoting the CIB’s innovative partnership models which attract private and institutional investment in collaboration with other government departments to support project development and policy outcomes. As a result, the CIB made signature investments in public transit, electricity, trade, and transportation infrastructure. Infrastructure Canada supported recipients in the substantial completion of two P3 Canada Fund projects while processing claims for three P3 Canada Fund projects, totalling $56 million.
Infrastructure Canada and the CIB also participated in the Atlantic Clean Power Road Map process, a unique effort in the Atlantic Region which brought together the region’s provincial governments, utilities, and lead federal departments to develop a path forward in advancing the transmission, generation, and storage of clean power. This work will assist in future decision-making to transition the region to clean energy sources in support of the Government of Canada’s climate goals. Additionally, the CIB has committed to investing $1.5 billion in zero-emission buses and has to date announced a total of $844 million for a total of 1,200 buses.
Waterfront Toronto
In 2020-21, Waterfront Toronto reached 90% completion of the design and planning for the Port Lands Flood Protection (PLFP) project. In addition, the Cherry Street Bridge and the first half of Commissioner's Street Bridge were installed. The project remains on scope, on budget and on time for substantial completion in 2024.
Result 2: Public infrastructure is managed in a more sustainable way
A key piece of sustainable management is the use of data in decision-making. In 2020-21, Infrastructure Canada supported the collection of data, analysis, and effective decision-making by working with key partners to support innovation. At the same time, the Department invested in more sustainable infrastructure for communities by improving their resilience. This includes work conducted with Statistics Canada, the Municipal Asset Management Program (MAMP) and the DMAF, as well as through Infrastructure Canada’s Departmental Data Strategy.
Infrastructure Canada is working with Statistics Canada to determine alternative data sources to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the state and performance of public infrastructure. This will support improved data collection and reduce response burden when seeking infrastructure data.
In terms of strengthening the sustainable management of public infrastructure, the Department also focussed on asset management training. Through the Municipal Asset Management Program (MAMP), 7,478 individual participants have received technical assistance related to asset management. Furthermore, 94% of individuals receiving technical assistance have reported an increase of their skills through participation in the program.
Additionally, Infrastructure Canada worked with partners to support projects that increase the resilience of communities to increasingly extreme weather events. As part of this, the DMAF aims at strengthening community resilience by reducing the socio-economic impacts of climate change and focusing on investments that mitigate the risk of infrastructure failure due to natural hazards. Infrastructure Canada also prepared for the launch of a new call for proposals under DMAF that will support projects with the greatest impact, whether they are in small, rural and Indigenous communities, or large urban centres.
The Department also contributed to sustainable and resilient communities through its ICIP approvals. In 2020-21, Infrastructure Canada approved 9 projects under the ICIP worth $11 million that contributed to increased natural capacity to adapt to climate change impacts, natural disasters and/or extreme weather events.
Infrastructure Canada also advanced key components of its Departmental Data Strategy, including initiatives aimed at improving data standards for new programs and delivery of a conceptual social data mapping tool.
Result 3: Rate of economic growth is increased in an inclusive and sustainable way
In supporting the CIB and following the ICIP, the Department advanced projects and initiatives aimed at increasing economic growth in an inclusive and sustainable way and creating and supporting good middle class jobs. Infrastructure Canada collaborated with other federal departments and agencies to design and deliver policies, programs and services that better meet the needs of rural communities.
Part of Infrastructure Canada’s work to increase economic growth with a focus on inclusion was continuing to implement the Community Employment Benefits (CEB) initiative under the ICIP. The CEB aims to increase economic growth and create good middle class jobs that improve quality of life by encouraging employment of apprentices, veterans, women, youth, persons with disabilities, recent immigrants and Indigenous peoples, while supporting small and medium enterprises and social enterprises. There were 34 projects in 2020-21 that required a CEB analysis, of which 23 were approved.
Another important part of inclusive economic growth and participation of all Canadians in the economy is investing in infrastructure for high-speed internet. In 2020-21, Infrastructure Canada worked with other departments and the CIB to make significant investments in high-speed internet in order to connect Canadian homes and businesses. In fact, the CIB has committed to investing $2 billion in broadband initiatives through its Growth Plan. Meanwhile, it has also announced a $130-million investment in the Southern Manitoba Fibre broadband project and is engaged in the Kivalliq Hydro-Fibre Link in Nunavut. The Department also worked with Innovation, Science, and Economic Development Canada to ensure that the launch of the Universal Broadband Fund in November 2020 would contribute to bringing high-speed internet to all Canadians, including those in rural and remote locations. The Government of Canada’s goal is to connect 100% of Canadians by 2030. The Universal Broadband Fund includes a Rapid Response Stream to which $150 million is dedicated for projects that can be started and completed quickly.
Moreover, Infrastructure Canada funded other projects specific to rural and northern communities, supporting inclusive and sustainable growth. Infrastructure Canada collaborated with other federal departments and agencies to design and deliver policies, programs and services that better meet the needs of rural communities. The Department convened partners spanning federal mandates such as heritage, agriculture, and tourism, supported by the rural lens guidance. Under the Rural Economic Development Strategy, in addition to funding broadband initiatives, the Department provided rural information and advice in support of the National Housing Co-Investment Fund, which seeks to ensure that existing rental housing is not lost to disrepair and that new, high-performing, affordable housing is built. As of March 31, 2021, the Government has committed to the construction of 2,270 units in rural areas, including 1,950 affordable housing units. Furthermore, under the Rural Economic Development Strategy, the Department continued to support infrastructure improvements through the Canada Community-Building Fund. The program enables a wide range of projects under 18 eligible project categories, with the most popular categories being public transit, local roads and bridges, and wastewater. In response to COVID-19, Infrastructure Canada has accelerated payments under the Fund, and the Government of Canada announced an additional $2.2 billion top-up for 2020-2021.
Result 4: Improved urban mobility in Canadian communities
In 2020-21, the Department made progress in funding public transit infrastructure, including accessible vehicles and stations. Infrastructure Canada is using the long-term $20.3-billion public transit stream of the ICIP to help increase the proportion of rail and transit way vehicles and stations that are accessible. Under the IBAs signed with each province and territory, all projects, including transit projects, are required to meet or exceed the requirements of the highest published accessibility standard in a jurisdiction, in addition to applicable provincial building codes and relevant municipal by-laws.
The Department also advanced urban mobility with its bridge projects. Infrastructure Canada continued to invest in urban transit, including working closely with the proponent of the Réseau express métropolitain project (REM Inc.) to advance construction of the light rail transit system within the Samuel De Champlain Bridge’s dedicated transit corridor. Infrastructure Canada also worked with JCCBI and partners such as the Ministère des Transports du Québec on a variety of urban mobility projects including multiple-use pathways.
Result 5: Environmental quality is improved, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are reduced and resilience of communities is increased
In the 2020-21 fiscal year, Infrastructure Canada worked to address climate change and GHG emissions while collaborating on projects to increase the resilience of communities. This included funding programs to support the transition to clean energy and promote greener municipalities.
Through various federal Off-Diesel and Coal Transition initiatives, the Government of Canada supported the economic diversification of rural, northern and remote communities that rely on fossil fuels so that they can transition to cleaner energy sources. Specifically, through the Canada Coal Transition Initiative – Infrastructure Fund (CCTI-IF), impacted communities can obtain funds to undertake infrastructure investments that are expected to contribute to an improvement in their economic diversity as they transition away from coal-fired electrical generation.
In the area of greener municipalities, Infrastructure Canada worked with the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) in 2020-21 to help municipalities reduce GHG emissions and increase their skills related to climate change mitigation and adaptation through capacity building activities and technical assistance.
In addition, through the Municipalities for Climate Innovation Program, 87% of participants in targeted municipalities have reported an increase in their awareness of the need to reduce greenhouse gases, as well as the need to adapt to climate change. 552 municipalities were reached by awareness-raising activities.
At the same time, the Department’s representation on the Green Municipal Fund Council ensures that projects align with and/or support departmental GHG objectives. This is one aspect of the variety of sustainability practices that the Fund implements to build resiliency in Canadian communities.
Finally, to increase awareness of climate risks associated with new infrastructure projects, the Department continued implementing a climate lens assessment at the project review stage of the ICIP for climate related projects and projects over a $10 million threshold. In fact, In 2020-21, about 100 projects - representing over $1 billion in contribution funding and having total eligible costs of over $2.6 billion - submitted a climate lens assessment to Infrastructure Canada for review.
Result 6: Canadian communities are inclusive and accessible
Infrastructure Canada made notable strides in investing in inclusive and accessible infrastructure at the community level. In 2020-21, $384 million of ICIP’s $1.3-billion Community, Culture and Recreation stream was approved and allocated to 456 projects.
The Department is also working with partners to build and renovate collective infrastructure assets and improve their accessibility. As of March 31, 2021, 99.8% of assets approved under the Community, Culture and Recreation ICIP stream are reporting hitting the target of meeting the highest applicable accessibility standard in their respective jurisdictions.
Gender-based analysis plus (GBA plus)
Infrastructure Canada is committed to ensuring inclusive outcomes of infrastructure investments and is working toward developing a GBA plus culture and implementing GBA plus analysis in its daily activities. In 2020-21, Infrastructure Canada’s GBA plus responsibility centre continued to provide support to program and policy teams across the organization to develop evidence-based GBA plus analyses for Memoranda to Cabinet, Treasury Board Submissions and budget proposals, as well as new and ongoing policy and program development more broadly.
To support the development of GBA plus analytical capacity within Infrastructure Canada and across the federal government, Infrastructure Canada’s Centre for Rural Economic Development participated in an interdepartmental working group led by Women and Gender Equality Canada (WAGE). The Centre for Rural Economic Development worked with WAGE to identify opportunities for the Centre’s Rural Lens to support an intersectional approach to GBA plus and contributed its expertise on rurality to support interdepartmental efforts to strengthen GBA plus considerations. In addition, the Department’s GBA plus responsibility centre liaised with WAGE and the Government of Canada’s GBA plus Interdepartmental Network to support knowledge sharing and dissemination on best practices in GBA plus.
The Department’s GBA plus responsibility centre supported Infrastructure Canada’s Diversity, Inclusion and Official Languages Co-Champions as part of the Department’s ongoing commitment to promote an inclusive workplace. The work included socializing the policy direction to Modernize the Government of Canada’s Sex and Gender Information Practices with employees and executives, and the launch of sub-committees focused on Diversity and Inclusion, GBA plus and LGBTQ2+, Official Languages and Accessibility-related issues, as well as the launch of a departmental Black, Indigenous, and Persons of Colour (BIPOC) Network for employees to share experiences and resources.
The Department continued to leverage its GBA plus capacity to inform both ongoing and planned investments in public transit to ensure that public transit improves the quality of life for diverse groups of people in communities across Canada. In addition, the Department continued to monitor the implementation of the Community Employment Benefits reporting initiative to encourage project planners and communities across the country to take advantage of their infrastructure projects to support the diversification of recruitment, training and procurement practices.
Experimentation
Two key experiments delivered by the Department in 2020-21 were the Smart Cities Challenge and the Canada Healthy Communities Initiative (CHCI). The Smart Cities Challenge is a pan-Canadian competition open to all municipalities, local or regional governments, and Indigenous communities. The Challenge empowers communities to adopt a smart cities approach to improve the lives of their residents through innovation, data, and connected technology. It is part of a whole-of-government initiative called the Impact Canada Initiative (ICI) which encourages innovative approaches toward Government of Canada programming. The results being sought reflect priorities in communities and align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, such as: making cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable; and taking urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts. As part of this initiative, Infrastructure Canada works closely with winners of the first competition of the Challenge to track and monitor performance outcomes and lessons learned.
The Canada Healthy Communities Initiative (CHCI) is providing up to $31 million in existing federal funding over two years to help communities adapt public spaces and local services in a way that meets people’s needs both during and following the COVID-19 pandemic. Launched in August 2020, the initiative provides grants to support projects under the following themes: create safe and vibrant public spaces; improve mobility options; and offer digital solutions. As part of the broader Government of Canada response to COVID-19, funding for CHCI is sourced from repurposed funds for a second Smart Cities Challenge competition. Like the Smart Cities Challenge, CHCI encourages community-led innovation – including data-driven and digital solutions – to improve the lives of residents. Community Foundations of Canada (CFC) was selected by Infrastructure Canada through an open and competitive call for applications to work directly with communities to identify and fund local projects and solutions to challenges presented by COVID-19. Following two application rounds held during Winter and Spring 2021, CFC will be sharing results over Winter 2022 and these will be reflected in future departmental reports.
2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development
Infrastructure Canada is contributing to advancing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by supporting various UN 2030 agenda initiatives. The department is committed to supporting this work by co-leading on two goals, in particular SDG Goal #9 to Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation and SDG Goal #11 to Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable. In addition to co-leading on these two goals, the department is also supporting various additional SDG goals that are of relevance to the Infrastructure Canada mandate. Finally, the department has committed to support and develop key infrastructure-related indicators under the Canadian Indicator Framework, as led by Statistics Canada.

Financial, human resources and performance information for Infrastructure Canada’s Program Inventory is available in GC InfoBaseEndnote i .
Actual spending was 30% below planned spending for 2020-21 in the Public Infrastructure core responsibility. This variance is mainly due to Grants & Contributions expenditures being lower than expected as a result of Contribution agreements for large projects remaining unsigned due to negotiations taking longer than expected. In addition, delays associated with COVID-19 distancing and lock-down measures had a direct impact on ultimate recipients’ operations and ability to advance projects as planned. For example, new projects were delayed due to the shortage of labour, delays in supply chains, increased material costs and delays in Indigenous consultations due to travel restrictions in Indigenous communities.
Internal Services
In the 2020-21 fiscal year, Infrastructure Canada developed a crucial Long-Term Resourcing Strategy which will allow it to focus on longer term planning and investing to better serve Canadians. In terms of diversity and inclusion, the Department launched a self-identification campaign to portray a full and accurate profile of Infrastructure Canada’s workforce. Additionally, the Department launched the Positive Space training and Thematic Learning Plans on Diversity and Inclusion.
Additionally, the Department has a five-year Integrated Audit and Evaluation Plan that is developed annually. This Plan is intended to provide independent, objective and evidence-based analysis and insight to senior management on departmental priorities and risks to support the effective and efficient achievement of results, fostering continuous improvement for Canadians. In early summer 2020, Infrastructure Canada significantly adjusted its 2020-21 Plan to meet departmental needs related to the COVID-19 pandemic. This adjusted Plan was fully implemented within the 2020-21 fiscal year. Internal Audit and Evaluation reports can be found at www.infrastructure.gc.ca.
