Cheatsheet: 23 important and under-the-radar highlights from Budget 2023
Why It Matters
Budget 2023 sets the Canadian governmentโs funding priorities for years to come. Organizational leaders must understand the budgetโs impact on their work to devise effective programming, outreach, and fundraising campaigns.
Budget 2023 had a massive hole where many non-profit and charity leaders expected to see renewed funding, a home in government, or robust support for the populations they serve. But this yearโs federal fiscal plan wasnโt all bad news for the social impact world.ย
Finance Minister Chrystia Freelandโs 2023 budget is, by all accounts, spare and restrained, taking into account a combination of inflationary pressures and the looming threat of a global recession. That said, it did allocate billions of dollars in important funding for causes and communities the social impact sector cares about: everything from Indigenous healthcare to a new Canada Water Agency.
