Canada – Airport Critical Infrastructure Program

Backgrounder

The Airport Critical Infrastructure Program (ACIP) is a new contribution funding program to help Canada’s larger airports make critical investments in safety, security or connectivity to mass transit.

The Airport Critical Infrastructure Program (ACIP) is a new contribution funding program to help Canada’s larger airports make critical investments in safety, security or connectivity to mass transit.

With $489.6 million available over five years, the Program will help eligible airports mitigate the financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, as part of the Government of Canada’s strategy to ensure that Canada’s air transportation system provides Canadians with choice, connectivity and affordable air travel.

Canada’s world-leading network of airports has been put under substantial financial strain as a result of the dramatic decline in passenger travel resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Infrastructure projects, including those at airports, are generally long horizon investments with years of planning beforehand and many years of benefits thereafter.

Funding may be provided to owners and/or operators of the following types of airports:

National Airport System (NAS) airports with annual passenger volumes of over 525,000 passengers (as of December 2019)

Non-NAS Airports with annual passenger volumes of over 525,000 passengers (as of December 2019)

Eligible projects include:

Safety-related projects (e.g., runway and lighting rehabilitation)

Infrastructure projects for the purposes of operational efficiency and/or to enhance security at airports

Improvements to mass transit connections at airports

Today, Bill C-14, An Act to implement certain provisions of the economic statement tabled in Parliament on November 30, 2020 and other measures received Royal Assent, providing support to Canadian families with young children, young people and recent grads, and businesses hit hardest by the pandemic.

The passage of Bill C-14 is an essential step to implementing measures from the 2020 Fall Economic Statement. The measures adopted as part of Bill C-14 include:

Immediate support for low- and middle-income families who are entitled to the Canada Child Benefit. Up to an additional $1,200 for each child under the age of six will be provided to families this year. This temporary assistance, which families will begin receiving in the coming weeks, will directly benefit about 1.6 million families and more than two million children.
Waiving interest on Canada Student Loans’ and Canada Apprentice Loans’ federal portion until March 2022. In Budget 2021, the government proposed to extend this measure for an additional year, until March 2023.
Amending the Income Tax Act to allow the Canada Emergency Rent Subsidy to recognize rent payable as an eligible expense when it becomes due so businesses can access the subsidy before the expense is actually paid. 

“With the passage of Bill C-14, our government will deliver long-awaited support to Canadian families and Canadian businesses to bridge them through the pandemic and ensure they are ready for recovery, and ready to come roaring back.”

The Honourable Chrystia Freeland, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance
