For over a year, FCM has been making the case that by modernizing how Canada funds municipalities, we can give struggling families a boost in their quality of life, providing them with roads, infrastructure, parks, recreation facilities and essential local services they can rely on. In response to the call for pre-budget submissions and as part of our efforts to chart a better future for all Canadians, FCM has submitted our recommendations to the Standing Committee on Finance ahead of the Fall Economic Statement and Budget 2025. These recommendations closely focus on the key issues of housing and homelessness, infrastructure renewal and resiliency, as well as public safety. These recommendations pinpoint where support is needed to build stronger, better-resourced communities that can grow with scale and ambition.
