Backgrounder: Investing across British Columbia to build safe and strong communities
Backgrounder
The Government of Canada is providing more than $326 million through the Canada Community-Building Fund for 188 local governments across British Columbia in 2025-2026. These funds provide communities with stable and flexible funding for their infrastructure priorities across a wide range of categories. The funding enables recipients to plan for their current and future needs, improve housing supply, and create connected communities.
