The Build Communities Strong Fund Community stream, formerly known as the Canada Community Building Fund, supplies local governments with predictable, long-term and stable funding for investment in infrastructure and capacity-building projects. This program is funded by the Government of Canada and administered in British Columbia by the Union of BC Municipalities.
