Grants and Contributions:
The expected results of the Provincial and Territorial Stream are increased economic growth and productivity, increased housing supply, and stronger communities through the expansion and improvement of essential public infrastructure. Investments are also expected to enable housing growth, strengthen post-secondary education infrastructure, increase the capacity of health facilities to respond to Canadians’ needs, and generate infrastructure benefits for rural, northern and Indigenous communities.
The Provincial and Territorial Stream of the Build Communities Strong Fund supports the construction and renewal of public infrastructure that contributes to economic prosperity, increased housing supply, stronger communities and reliable public assets. More specifically, the stream provides funding to provinces and territories for infrastructure priorities related to housing, post-secondary education and health care, including housing-enabling infrastructure such as roads, water and wastewater systems, and transit.
