Overview
The governments of Canada and Alberta are working together to make long-term infrastructure investments that will create economic growth, sustain well-paying jobs, build inclusive communities and support a low carbon, green economy - leading to a higher quality of life for all Canadians.
Through the federal government's Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP), Alberta is receiving $3.65 billion over the next 10 years (2018-28). These projects will be cost-shared with the Alberta government, municipalities and other partners.
Program update (August 2019)
Thank you for your interest in the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP). The intake is now closed to new Expressions of Interest for funding under the Green Infrastructure; Community, Culture, and Recreation; and Rural and Northern Communities streams.
If your Expression of Interest was received before July 31, 2019, it will be reviewed and considered for funding as part of the Government of Alberta’s Budget 2020 deliberations.
- Early fall 2019: Applicants with ineligible projects will be notified that their project cannot be considered for funding.
- End of 2019: Remaining applicants can expect to be notified of their applications status.
- Early 2020: Projects that are endorsed to proceed to the next stage will work with the province to submit a federal application.
- Spring/Summer 2020: The federal application and approval process can take several months; the target is to have federal approvals in place in time for the 2020 construction season.
If you missed submitting your Expression of Interest before the July 31, 2019 intake deadline, or are not successful in receiving funding as part of the above process, please consider resubmitting it during the next intake, which is expected to open in spring 2020, depending on funding availability.
