British Columbia’s 2018‒19 federal Gas Tax Fund allocations
Backgrounder
The Government of Canada has delivered the first of two annual $139.3-million federal Gas Tax Fund (GTF) instalments to British Columbia. The funding will flow through the Union of British Columbia Municipalities to the following 190 communities on a per capita basis. A portion of this annual allocation is awarded on an application basis to support strategic priorities across the province. In total, the GTF will provide over $278.6 million this year for local infrastructure projects.
Since the Fund’s launch in 2005, British Columbia communities have received over $2.8 billion from the federal Gas Tax Fund.
