In Saskatoon and across the country, municipalities need modernized, sustainable and predictable funding tools to tackle Canadians’ biggest priorities—like homelessness, housing, infrastructure and public safety.

Municipalities know that climate-based funding is an investment — spending now could mean lower costs down the line. A strong partnership and investments from all orders of government are essential to building climate-resilient communities.

Ottawa is committing more funding to its climate goals. Is it enough?
The city is investing $94 million into projects that “apply a climate lens” in the city, but advocates insist that more is urgently needed.

FCM is calling for a modern fiscal partnership that guarantees municipalities fair access to funding and invests in the infrastructure that makes housing possible.

It’s time to make municipalities whole so communities can deliver the homes and services Canadians deserve.
