Highlights of these Estimates

In this section

The Supplementary Estimates (C), 2021–22 present a total of $17.1 billion in incremental budgetary spending, which reflects $13.2 billion to be voted and a $3.9 billion increase in forecast statutory expenditures. Roughly $6.9 billion (53%) of the voted requirements are for the Government’s response to the COVID‑19 global pandemic.

These Estimates seek parliamentary approval of $13.2 billion in new voted spending. The majority of this new spending is to:

  • combat COVID‑19, including for procurement of rapid tests, vaccines and therapeutics;
  • address the impacts of climate change;
  • support housing, education, water treatment, health services and emergency response activities for Indigenous Canadians and their communities;
  • fund housing and infrastructure projects; and
  • support military operations and personnel.

Overall, funding requirements for the top 10 organizations account for approximately 81% of the voted spending sought through these Estimates. Of those 10 organizations, these six are each seeking more than $500 million to support their priorities:

  • Department of Health ($3.7 billion);
  • Public Health Agency of Canada ($3.0 billion);
  • Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development ($828.2 million);
  • Department of Indigenous Services ($766.4 million);
  • Department of National Defence ($638.3 million); and
  • Office of Infrastructure of Canada ($521.8 million).

These Estimates show, for information purposes, changes in planned statutory expenditures, including $400 million in expenditures pursuant to the proposed Economic and Fiscal Update Implementation Act, 2021. Additional information on statutory authorities for COVID‑19 related expenditures is presented online.

The increase of $3.9 billion in budgetary statutory expenditures is mainly due to:

  • the Canada Worker Lockdown Benefit ($2.4 billion);
  • an increase in interest on unmatured debt ($1.6 billion);
  • payments to provinces and territories pursuant to the proposed Economic and Fiscal Update Implementation Act, 2021 for proof-of-vaccination initiatives ($300.0 million) and ventilation improvement projects in schools ($100.0 million);
  • an increase to Canada Student Grants ($209.1 million); and
  • the updated forecast from the Economic and Fiscal Update 2021 for Old Age Security ($406.6 million decrease) and the Guaranteed Income Supplement ($419.6 million decrease).

The decrease of $399.8 million in non-budgetary statutory expenditures is due to:

  • an increase related to the Large Employer Emergency Financing Facility ($320.0 million) which provides short-term liquidity assistance to large employers affected by the pandemic; and
  • an updated forecast for student and apprenticeship loans ($719.8 million decrease).

General Information

In order to spend money, the government must receive Parliament’s approval, either through previously adopted legislation that provides ongoing authority or on an annual basis through the introduction and passage of appropriation bills in Parliament. As with other bills, appropriation bills become law after being approved by both the House of Commons and the Senate and receiving Royal Assent.

To support Parliament’s consideration and review, the President of the Treasury Board tables in Parliament, prior to the introduction of each appropriation bill, an Estimates publication (Main or Supplementary) that provides information and details on spending authorities sought.

While the Main Estimates provide an overview of spending requirements for the upcoming fiscal year, Supplementary Estimates present information on additional spending requirements which were either not sufficiently developed in time for inclusion in the Main Estimates, or have subsequently been refined to account for developments in particular programs and services.

The Supplementary Estimates (C), 2021–22 is the third and final Supplementary Estimates planned for this fiscal year.

For this exercise, the President of the Treasury Board tables a document in Parliament that includes:

  • a summary of the government’s incremental financial requirements;
  • an overview of major funding requests and horizontal initiatives;
  • a comparison of the Economic and Fiscal Update 2021 to planned expenditures in the 2021–22 Estimates;
  • highlights of new authority requirements and structural changes;
  • funding details by organization; and
  • a proposed schedule to the appropriation bill to be approved by Parliament.

In addition to the tabled document, the following supplemental information will also be made available online:

  • a detailed listing of statutory expenditures reported through the Estimates;
  • a complete breakdown of planned expenditures by standard object, such as personnel, professional services and transfer payments;
  • planned expenditures by purpose in accordance with the organization’s Departmental Reporting Framework;
  • planned expenditures related to COVID‑19 response;
  • frozen allotments in voted authorities;
  • allocations from Treasury Board Central Votes; and
  • a listing of transfers between organizations.

The following terminology is used throughout this document:

  • 2019–20 Expenditures refer to the actual expenditures published in the 2020 Public Accounts (Volume II);
  • 2020–21 Estimates to date include the aggregate of the requirements reported in the Main Estimates, and Supplementary Estimates (A), (B) and (C) of that fiscal year;
  • authorities to date are comprised of amounts reported in the prior Estimates of the current fiscal year, two-year appropriations and allocations of votes managed by Treasury Board;
  • these Supplementary Estimates refer to the requirements reported through Supplementary Estimates (C);
  • proposed authorities is the sum of all the amounts reported in the Estimates of the current fiscal year, two-year appropriations and allocations from votes managed by Treasury Board;
  • budgetary expenditures include the cost of servicing the public debt; operating and capital expenditures; transfer payments to other levels of government, organizations or individuals; and payments to Crown corporations;
  • non-budgetary expenditures – or loans, investments and advances – are outlays that represent changes in the composition of the Government’s financial assets. Negative figures indicate that recoveries exceed expenditures;
  • voted describes appropriations or expenditures for which parliamentary authority is sought through an appropriation bill; and
  • statutory describes appropriations or expenditures which are authorized by Parliament through legislation other than an appropriation act; forecasts are provided for Parliament’s information.

Summary of Estimates

The Supplementary Estimates (C), 2021–22 provides information in support of voted budgetary expenditures in the amount of $13.2 billion for a total of $188.8 billion in 2021–22. This is an increase of 7.5% over the authorities to date.

Major Items

The following is a list of the major voted initiatives, which are included in these Supplementary Estimates to seek parliamentary approval.

Department of Health and Public Health Agency of Canada: $4.0 billion
Funding for the procurement of additional rapid test kits (COVID‑19)

This funding will be used to procure and distribute COVID‑19 rapid tests to meet increased demand from provinces and territories, from federally-administered programs, as well as for workers providing essential Government of Canada services. The tests will support outbreak management, reduce risk in vulnerable populations, and help sustain economic and social reopening in workplaces and schools.

Public Health Agency of Canada: $1.0 billion
Funding for the procurement of additional therapeutics (COVID‑19)

This funding will support the acquisition of new and emerging COVID‑19 treatments, including procurements under advanced purchase agreements, as well as costs associated with storage, distribution and deployment. The first COVID‑19 treatments required an intravenous infusion or injection at hospitals or health care clinics. The availability of new antiviral COVID‑19 therapies will make outpatient treatment much easier, and the new treatments are expected to be in high demand by healthcare practitioners and their patients.

Department of Health and Public Health Agency of Canada: $1.0 billion
Funding to support emergency measures related to the pandemic (COVID‑19)

This funding is for contracting, staffing or acquisition of assets needed to respond to the pandemic, which could include additional rapid tests, treatments and therapeutics, or biomedical assets. This funding may also be used for associated logistics and operational costs, as well as to exercise options under existing advanced purchase agreements.

Public Health Agency of Canada: $687.2 million
Funding for the procurement of vaccine and personal protective equipment (COVID‑19)

Supplies of COVID‑19 vaccines continue to be required for booster shots, as well as for those not fully vaccinated. This funding will support acquisition of additional COVID‑19 vaccines and development of second-generation vaccines against variants of concern. To ensure COVID‑19 vaccines continue to be available, the federal government has entered an advanced purchase agreement with Pfizer Canada.

Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development and Department of the Environment: $653.7 million
Funding to help developing countries address the impact of climate change

This funding will scale-up support to developing countries to transition towards low-carbon, climate-resilient, nature-positive economies, in support of the goals of the Paris Agreement.

Office of Infrastructure of Canada: $349.3 million
Funding for the P3 Canada Fund

The Office of Infrastructure of Canada assumed responsibility for the P3 Canada Fund following the dissolution of PPP Canada Inc. This funding will support the delivery of approved, ongoing public-private partnership projects which the federal government has legally committed to under the P3 Canada Fund.

Treasury Board Secretariat: $206.0 million
Funding for compensation adjustments – Transfers to departments and agencies for negotiated salary adjustments

This funding will be used to compensate appropriated organizations for salary adjustments arising from recently negotiated collective bargaining agreements and other changes to the terms and conditions of employment. These adjustments include a new collective agreement signed with the Border Services group, temporary recruitment and retention incentives for compensation advisors, and payments to compensate employees for the extended implementation timeframes of collective agreements during the 2018 round of collective bargaining.

Treasury Board Secretariat: $200.0 million
Paylist requirements – Funding for adjustments made to terms and conditions of service or employment of the federal public administration

This funding will reimburse organizations for eligible paylist expenditures such as parental allowances and severance pay, as well as provide capacity to respond to compensation pressures pertaining to collective agreements which may be ratified by March 31, 2022.

Comparison of the Economic and Fiscal Update 2021 and Estimates

The following reconciliation is for the purpose of providing greater clarity on the relationship between the figures presented in the Economic and Fiscal Update 2021 and the 2021–22 Estimates and to allow for a more effective comparison and study of how the Estimates cash requirements are derived from the accrual-based budget plan.

Items not included in the Estimates

The Economic and Fiscal Update forecast covers the complete scope of the Government’s fiscal framework, including revenues, program and tax expenditures, statutory expenditures such as Employment Insurance benefits, and provision for future obligations such as public service pensions. The scope of the Estimates is narrower than the Economic and Fiscal Update forecast. The main purpose of the Estimates is to support Parliament’s consideration of the appropriation bills, which are the legal instruments for authorizing certain payments.

The Estimates are therefore focused on the government’s cash needs which require parliamentary appropriations and exclude certain items reported in the Economic and Fiscal Update. Costs related to the Employment Insurance benefits, children’s benefits and the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy are the largest components of the items excluded from the Estimates.

The Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy and the Canada Child Benefit are legislated through the Income Tax Act and are considered expenditures for government financial reporting purposes. Parliament does not authorize annual spending for these items or for any other tax expenditure or refundable tax credit.

Most Employment Insurance costs are paid directly out of the Employment Insurance Operating Account, rather than a departmental appropriation, and are therefore not included in the Estimates.

Netted revenues

Certain expenditures are funded through departmental revenues. Accrual expenses in the Economic and Fiscal Update are on a ‘gross’ basis, meaning the revenues are included in the accrual-based revenue forecast, while they are netted against expenditures in the Estimates.

Accrual and other

The Economic and Fiscal Update is presented on a full accrual basis whereas the Estimates are presented on a modified cash basis. The accrual basis of accounting recognizes income when it is earned and expenses when they are incurred, whereas cash accounting recognizes them when the cash or its equivalent has been paid. As a result, certain items will be reported differently between the two publications. This category also includes costs related to consolidated Crown corporations that are funded from their own revenues, a number of other adjustments necessary to forecast expenses on a fully consolidated basis, as well as adjustments for items that have been approved and earmarked in the fiscal framework (at the time of Economic and Fiscal Update and since then).

Structural Changes and Changes to Voted Authorities

The following structural changes have been reflected since the publishing of the Supplementary Estimates (B), 2021–22:

  • the LGBTQ2 Secretariat was transferred from the Department of Canadian Heritage to the Department for Women and Gender Equality (P.C. 2021-0951); and
  • the Homelessness Policy Directorate was transferred from the Department of Employment and Social Development to the Office of Infrastructure of Canada (P.C. 2021-0951).

The Minister of Housing and Diversity and Inclusion was designated as the appropriate Minister for the purposes of the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation Act, taking on responsibility for the Corporation (P.C. 2021-0947).

The following new or amended authorities are sought through the Appropriation Act for these Estimates:

  • the Correctional Service of Canada is amending Vote 5 to reflect changes to the Corrections and Conditional Release Act authorizing payments to Indigenous governing bodies or Indigenous organizations;
  • the Department of Citizenship and Immigration is adding Vote 15 for the forgiveness of a debt and Vote 20 to write off debts related to immigration loans;
  • the Department of Employment and Social Development is adding Vote 10 to write off debts related to student and apprentice loans;
  • the Department of Public Works and Government Services is adding Vote 10 to amend the Translation Bureau Revolving Fund to increase the amount by which the aggregate of its expenditures may exceed its revenues; and
  • the Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario is amending Vote 1 to add an authority to pay the salary of a minister of State.

Estimates by Organization

126 organizations are represented in the 2021–22 Estimates. Of these, 75 organizations are included in these Supplementary Estimates: 5 for information only and 70 for consideration by Parliament.
