3.4 Other Items of Interest

Since Infrastructure Canada was instituted in 2002, many of its organizations have been occupying office spaces in different locations in downtown Ottawa, Ontario, i.e. in different building addresses in the downtown core. Then, in early 2009, the department was able to secure permanent office space at 180 Kent Street, in a completely new building adjacent to the Minto Place Complex on Slater Street. Presently, more than half of Infrastructure Canada’s employees have moved to this new address, and the relocation is expected to be finalized in 2011-2012. This will be the first time that the whole department will be in the same building. It is expected that employees and the department as a whole will greatly benefit from this relocation, such as saving time travelling to and from meetings in different locations, having easier access to one another, being able to interact with each other, as well as many other benefits of being all in the same location.

  1. Total Authorities are lower than Planned Spending due to the fact that Statutory Funding Authorities are adjusted for information purposes during the year. Statutory funding authority for the programs under the Economic Action Plan was provided in the Budget Implementation Act. These programs are: Infrastructure Stimulus Fund, the accelerated funding under the Provincial-Territorial Infrastructure Base Fund, Green Infrastructure Fund and the Building Canada Fund-Communities Component Top-Up, all of which are expected to be completed by March 31, 2011.
  2. The increase in human resources requirement in 2009-2010 was due to the implementation of the programs introduced by the Economic Action Plan (EAP) in Budget 2009.
  3. Commencing in the 2009-2010 Estimates cycle, the resources for Program Activity: Internal Services are displayed separately from other program activities. They are no longer distributed among the remaining program activities, as was the case in previous Main Estimates.
