Purpose and objectives of transfer payment program	The Permanent Public Transit Fund (PPTP) supports reliable, fast, affordable and clean public transit. The PPTP is the first phase of Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada’s new public transit funding. This national program provides near-term support through three funds: the Zero-Emission Transit Fund (ZETF), the Active Transportation Fund (ATF), and the Rural Transit Solutions Fund (RTSF). Funding is also available to accelerate future major projects and support the expansion of large urban transit systems. Phase 2, which is expected to be launched in 2024, will lead to permanent public transit funding which will be delivered seamlessly from Phase 1. Phase 2 will include $3 billion per year in long-term and predictable funding. The PPTP is intended to support economic, environmental, and social benefits by funding sustainable mobility infrastructure such as public transit systems, active transportation networks, and other transit solutions in communities of all sizes across Canada. The program will: Help Canadians move around easier, create employment opportunities by supporting public transit projects, provide dedicated planning funding to accelerate future major projects, and support the expansion of large urban transit systems that many Canadians depend on every day; Reduce pollution by enhancing public transit systems and switching them to cleaner electrical power, including supporting the use of zero-emission vehicles and related infrastructure. Part of the funding is closely coordinated with the Canada Infrastructure Bank's commitment to invest in more than $1.5 billion in zero emission buses ; Support healthy lifestyles in communities and meet the growing demand for active transportation projects by building pathways, bike lanes, trails and pedestrian bridges, in addition to supporting active transportation planning activities; Help Canadians living in rural and remote areas travel to and from work more easily and access essential services, by working with rural, remote, and Indigenous communities to identify and create transit solutions that meet their needs; and, Fill existing gaps in the federal suite of transit programming and lay the foundation for future programs to support improved public transportation for all Canadians.
Results achieved	Since the program began in 2021, the following projects have been approved: ATF continued to support projects which make travel by active transportation easier, safer, more convenient and more enjoyable. In 2023-24, projects representing over $5.7 million in federal contributions were approved. Since 2021-22, a total of 498 projects with a federal contribution of over $350.2 million have been approved. As of March 31, 2024, 48 projects have been completed representing over 9% of approved projects. Of the approved projects as of March 31, 2024, 38 projects representing over $25.4 million in federal contributions have been approved for projects led by or for Indigenous recipients as part of the commitment to provide a minimum of 10% of the overall ATF envelope to Indigenous recipients. Additional projects received during the rolling intake for Indigenous recipients will receive a decision as soon as possible in 2024-25. RTSF continued to provide ongoing support to rural communities to enable them to develop and implement locally-driven transit solutions. In 2023-24, projects were approved for a total of over $21.3 million in federal contributions.

Green and Inclusive Community Buildings (GICB)

Start date	2021-22
End date	2025-26
Type of transfer payment	Grants and Contributions
Type of appropriation	Voted annually through Estimates
Fiscal year for terms and conditions	2021-22
Link to departmental result(s)	3.1: Investments are delivered with appropriate stewardship
Link to the department's Program Inventory	Allocation-Based and Direct Funding Stewardship
Purpose and objectives of transfer payment program	The Green and Inclusive Community Buildings (GICB) program aims to build more community buildings and improve existing ones – in particular in areas with populations experiencing higher needs – while also making the buildings more energy efficient, lower carbon, more resilient and higher performing. This five-year $1.5 billion program will support green and accessible retrofits, repairs or upgrades of existing public community buildings and the construction of new publicly-accessible community buildings that serve high-needs, underserved communities across Canada. Funding is available for municipal or regional governments, public sector bodies, not-for-profit organizations, provincial or territorial governments and Indigenous recipients for eligible projects. Individuals and for-profit organizations are not eligible to apply.
Results achieved	In 2023-24, Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada fully allocated the initial funding allocation of $1.5 billion under the GICB program by approving projects for a federal contribution of $526 million. If additional funds become available, an intake would be launched as soon as possible in 2024-25. Cumulatively, since 2021-22, a total of 251 projects have been approved. As of March 31, 2024, 12 projects have been completed, representing 5% of approved projects. Of the 251 approved projects, 72 projects representing over $479 million in federal contributions was allocated to projects for Indigenous applicants. This represents 34% of the overall funding envelope, well above the commitment to provide a minimum of 10% of the overall GICB envelope to Indigenous recipients.
Findings of audits completed in 2023-24	No audit was completed during the reporting year.
Findings of evaluations completed in 2023-24	No evaluation was completed during the reporting year. An evaluation is expected to be conducted in 2025-26.
Engagement of applicants and recipients in 2023-24	The program continued to work collaboratively with recipients to ensure that contribution agreements were negotiated and signed for approved and funded projects under this program. The program engaged with project proponents and potential applicants through outreach and program and application support, and continued to conduct monitoring and oversight activities for ongoing projects.

Reaching Home

Start date	2019-20
End date	2027-28
Type of transfer payment	Grants and Contributions
Type of appropriation	Voted annually through Estimates
Fiscal year for terms and conditions	2019-20
Link to departmental result(s)	3.1: Investments are delivered with appropriate stewardship
Link to the department's Program Inventory	Homelessness Funding Oversight
Purpose and objectives of transfer payment program	Reaching Home supports community-based responses to prevent and reduce homelessness across Canada. Communities and service providers receive grants and contributions funding to support services targeted to individuals and families who are experiencing homelessness or are at risk of homelessness in urban centres, rural communities and in the territories. Reaching Home works with communities to develop and deliver data-driven system plans with clear outcomes. Communities are asked to report publicly on community-wide outcomes. The program also collects and analyzes national homelessness data, and shares knowledge with communities, partners and stakeholders. Federally-funded projects, and federal leadership that fosters transformation of the sector, together promote the prevention and reduction of homelessness in Canada. The Government of Canada is one of many funding partners addressing homelessness, and performance indicators and expected results are impacted by multiple factors. The program is a transfer payment program with non-repayable grants and contributions; however, some repayment clauses are outlined in the Reaching Home Terms and Conditions.
Results achieved	Reaching Home provides funding and support to help address and prevent homelessness. In 2023-24, the program funded projects that helped place 18,537 people in more stable housing (as of August 8, 2024, based on 85% of reports). Of those placed in more stable housing, 12 months later, 77% of people contacted remained housed or successfully exited the program. In 2023-24, the program funded projects that support 28,599 people who benefited from core prevention services (as of August 8, 2024, based on 85% of reports). Ongoing economic pressures have exacerbated homelessness, including chronic homelessness, in Canada. For example, of an estimated 105,655 Canadians who used an emergency shelter in 2022, 31,476 were estimated to be experiencing chronic homelessness. This represents a 17% increase from 2016 to 2022. Note: As the Government of Canada does not have sole jurisdiction over homelessness, this last expected result is considered a shared one with attribution distributed across a range of stakeholders, community service providers, and other orders of government. The Government continues to expand its collaboration with provincial and territorial counterparts through bilateral and multilateral fora to advance better coordination and alignment.
Findings of audits completed in 2023-24	No audit was completed during the reporting year. A joint audit and evaluation is expected to be conducted in 2026-27.
Findings of evaluations completed in 2023-24	The evaluation of Reaching Home was published in July 2023, and was completed while the program resided within ESDC. As the program now falls under the HICC’s purview, any recommendations follow-up and future evaluations will be led by the Department. The evaluation report published the following findings: The program supported communities to implement a data-driven Coordinated Access system based on their needs. However, there is room to improve data capacity and buy-in from communities and funding recipients to implement Coordinated Access. The program had ongoing engagement and collaboration with Indigenous partners. However, there is a need for improvement in the engagement with Indigenous partners to address the overrepresentation of Indigenous Peoples experiencing or at risk of homelessness. Projects under regionally delivered funding streams are contributing to placing individuals experiencing homelessness in more stable housing and providing prevention services to individuals at risk of homelessness. However, there are some challenges demonstrating consistent progression towards homelessness prevention and reduction. Over the first 2 years, from 2019 to 2020 and 2020 to 2021, funded projects reported: 31,928 individuals were placed in more stable housing (program cumulative target of 71,500 individuals by March 2022). 62,349 individuals received a prevention and shelter diversion intervention (program cumulative target of 46,600 individuals by March 2022). A joint audit and evaluation is expected to be conducted in 2026-27.
Engagement of applicants and recipients in 2023-24	In collaboration with the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC), HICC developed an awareness strategy for funding opportunities for the homeless-serving sector. A series of webinars hosted by CMHC and HICC in December 2023 were delivered to Reaching Home Designated, Rural and Remote, Territorial and Indigenous communities to ensure they are aware of other funding programs offered through National Housing Strategy (NHS). In January 2024, HICC also facilitated a roundtable engagement on the topic of encampments with community partners, municipalities, provinces and territories, and federal stakeholders to explore how the federal government could meaningfully contribute in the response to unsheltered homelessness and homeless encampments. The Department also continued to engage with provincial and territorial counterparts, both bilaterally and through multilateral fora, to advance coordination and alignment. For example, HICC held bilateral working-level calls with provincial and territorial governments, as well as hosted regular senior officials’ meetings with specific jurisdictions in addition to leading Federal-Provincial-Territorial (FPT) multilateral tables. During the 2023-24 year, HICC identified and advanced priorities for Indigenous peoples living in urban and/or rural communities off-reserve through ongoing regular engagement with the National Indigenous Homelessness Council (NIHC). In addition, HICC pursued co-development approaches by engaging distinctions-based partners (Assembly of First Nations, Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami and the four Inuit treaty organizations, the Métis National Council and its Governing Members, the Manitoba Métis Federation, and 18 Self-Governing First Nations) through various tables and forums. HICC, through the Action Research on Chronic Homelessness (ARCH) initiative, engaged with Designated Community, Indigenous Homelessness and Territorial Homelessness Community Entities regularly through ad hoc meetings and more formal ones such as the bi-monthly Community of Practice.

Type of appropriation	Voted annually through Estimates
Fiscal year for terms and conditions	2023-24
Link to departmental result(s)	1.1: Infrastructure, communities and homelessness policy are informed by evidence
Link to the department's Program Inventory	Public Infrastructure and Communities Policy
Purpose and objectives of transfer payment program	The initiative responds to the need for better-informed infrastructure investment decisions in the context of a rapidly changing climate. The Supporting Climate Resilient Infrastructure Initiative (SCRI) includes a top up the Disaster Mitigation and Adaptation Fund; establishes climate resilience requirements across new infrastructure funding programs; develops a new open access climate toolkit and support services; and enhances climate-informed guidance, standards, and codes. The objective of the initiative is to support evidence-based, climate-informed action of public infrastructure. HICC will provide supports and services to help communities to include climate considerations in their infrastructure decisions. For instance, HICC will support communities to use tools and resources to assess projects risks to climate hazards, identify options for low carbon resilient infrastructure. HICC will also support this objective by distributing funding to eligible recipients to build climate-resilient infrastructure solutions, create tools and resources, mobilize knowledge sharing to advance understanding of the impacts of climate change on infrastructure, and share tangible actions and best practices to reduce these risks.
Results achieved	Top-up to the Disaster Mitigation and Adaptation Fund: The $489.1 million secured through the Government of Canada Adaptation Action Plan for the Disaster Mitigation and Adaptation Fund was combined with leftover funds for an intake in January 2023. This intake closed in July 2023, with close to $1 billion available. The assessment of projects received have been ongoing and funding decisions will be made to allocate the remaining funding envelope. Climate resilience requirements: Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada is developing new resilience requirements to ensure federal investments increase the climate-readiness of Canada’s infrastructure and ensures continuity of service for current and future climate conditions. Resilience requirements will include hazard identification, while leveraging the latest climate informed design data, hazard maps, and guidance developed with the NRC and SCC. Climate-informed guidance, standards, and codes: Established a foundation for continued collaboration between Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada, the National Research Council (NRC) and the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) to deliver resilient infrastructure guidance through a trilateral Memorandum of Understanding signed by three Deputy heads. In 2023-24, research continued to inform guidance, standard and code development and work was initiated, or advanced, by the NRC in 8 areas: nature-based solutions, flooding, resilience of dams, urban transit, wildland-urban interface design (related to wildfire risk), targeted guidance for northern, remote and Indigenous communities, tools and technical solutions for public infrastructure management. Code changes to the National Building Code and Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code are being considered for 2025. The SCC advanced 9 standardization strategies under the during this period related to community climate resilience in the areas of: shoreline management, extreme heat, and frameworks for risk assessment and management. Numerous federal, national and international presentations on priority areas were delivered to help further refine desired results and drive uptake. Additionally, a website was created to increase awareness of the latest guidance (over 80 documents) resulting from the collaboration between HICC, NRC and SCC. New open-access toolkit and support services: An applicant was selected to design and deliver an open-access, web based Climate Toolkit Platform, and a contribution agreement was negotiated and signed in March 2024. Activities were promptly initiated by the recipient. There is no variance to planned results for the period.
Findings of audits completed in 2023-24	No audit was completed during the reporting year.
Findings of evaluations completed in 2023-24	No evaluation was completed during the reporting year. An evaluation is expected to be conducted in 2027-28.
Engagement of applicants and recipients in 2023-24	New open-access toolkit and support services: Once the necessary spending authorities were obtained in 2023-24, HICC undertook outreach and engagement to identify potential organizations who were able to perform the necessary work to design and deliver a Climate Toolkit Platform as envisioned. Several potential recipients were identified, but only one organization expressed interest. HICC negotiated and signed the contribution agreement with this organization. Additional outreach and engagement activities were undertaken in late 2023-24 fiscal year to develop a call for proposals to design and administer a Roster of Climate and Infrastructure Experts. HICC presented at several conferences and workshops, stakeholder working groups, and directly engaged with key organizations to ensure plans for the initiative answered the needs of infrastructure decision makers and local communities. The Call for Proposals was published on HICC’s website in early April 2024. Top-up to the Disaster Mitigation and Adaptation Fund: DMAF will continue to engage with project proponents through correspondence, project oversight activities and program support, including through the use of a DMAF program inbox that allows proponents to contact Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada program staff with their questions
