Canadian Infrastructure Report Card

14 Jan 2016

The PSC extends special thanks to Alain Gonthier (City of Ottawa and Canadian Network of Asset Managers) for his service as Chair of the Report Card Advisory Board and contribution to the analysis of survey results. [...] Because a high percentage of large municipalities responded to the survey, the extrapolation of the results in Part 1 took into account the size of responding municipalities in order to better estimate the state of municipal infrastructure nationally. [...] Survey results were extrapolated to the full Canadian population3 to achieve the national picture presented in Part 1 of this report, with the exception of the transit data which was only extrapolated to the serviced transit population of Canada4 (see Appendices D and E for the full list of municipalities and transit authorities that provided survey data). [...] The deferral of needed investment led to a decline in the physical condition of local infrastructure and an increase in the cost of renewing aging assets. [...] The information included in this summary is based on an extrapolation of the 106 responses received for the potable water section of the survey, which corresponds to a sample of 19 million Canadians.
