[a] The grant for the Canada-Quebec Accord and contributions to provinces recognize the importance of settlement services that respond to the growing need to help immigrants integrate.

[b] Host funds are used to match newcomers with Canadian volunteers—individuals and groups—who help them settle in and integrate.

[c] The Immigrant Settlement and Adaptation Program provides funds for services such as orientation, paraprofessional counselling, translation, job-finding help, and Enhanced Language Training.

[d] The Resettlement Assistance Program helps pay for temporary accommodations, clothing, household effects, and living expenses for up to one year for indigent Convention refugees.

[e] The Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada Program provides funds for basic language training in both of Canada’s official languages to help adult immigrants integrate socially, culturally, economically, and politically.

[f] Total Authorities decreased from Planned Spending by $7.6 million, due to transfers to the operating vote. Actual expenditures were lower than Total Authorities by $93.8 million. This lapse is mainly attributable to lower spending on the Canada-Ontario Immigration Agreement.
