Effective immediately & until further notice, the flags at all City of Ottawa facilities have been lowered to half-mast in honour of the victims of the tragedy at Canadian Forces Base Wainwright on October 17, 2026.
The City expresses its solidarity with the Wainwright community.

Today’s federal announcement marks an important investment in helping Canadians lower their home energy bills and reduce emissions.
Reaching the ambition of retrofitting one million homes will mean bringing together a range of complementary solutions. Canadians also need access to affordable financing and solutions that support comprehensive home retrofits, including improvements to energy efficiency and climate resilience.
There is a significant opportunity to build on today’s measures with complementary approaches that help more households undertake deeper retrofits, mobilize additional investment and deliver lasting savings. Municipalities have an important role to play in making those solutions work for communities across Canada.
FCM looks forward to working with the federal government to turn this ambition into lasting, measurable results.

Canada is facing a nation-defining moment. Decisions being made today about sovereignty, economic strength and ambitious goals will shape our country for years to come.
Federal investments and major projects will land in communities across the country. Making those investments successful means ensuring communities are ready for the growth that comes with them.

Canada’s AI future won’t be built by governments or companies alone. It will be built in partnership with communities across the country.
Today, I met with Federation of Canadian Municipalities President Tim Tierney and municipal leaders from across Canada to discuss responsible AI data centre development and the next generation of digital infrastructure.
Because when communities help shape growth, everyone benefits. That's how we build a stronger economy, stronger communities, and a stronger Canada.
🇨🇦
L’avenir de l’IA au Canada ne se bâtira pas uniquement grâce aux gouvernements ou aux entreprises. Il se bâtira en partenariat avec les collectivités partout au pays.
Aujourd’hui, j’ai rencontré le président de la Fédération canadienne des municipalités, Tim Tierney, ainsi que des élus municipaux de partout au Canada afin de discuter du développement responsable des centres de données et de la prochaine génération d’infrastructures numériques.
Car lorsque les collectivités contribuent à façonner la croissance, tout le monde y gagne. C’est ainsi que nous bâtissons une économie plus forte, des collectivités plus fortes et un Canada plus fort.

A stronger, more sovereign Canada must be built on communities that are equipped to deliver with the housing stability and infrastructure capacity needed to support national ambition.
Our thanks to Minister for Housing and Infrastructure, @gregorrobertson, for meeting with municipal leaders today in Ottawa.
All orders of government must work together.

Municipal leaders are in Ottawa this week to meet with federal decision-makers ahead of Budget 2026.
Municipalities are essential delivery partners that turn national ambition into tangible results. Canada is facing a consequential moment—and to meet it, we need sustained leadership, strong investments and collaboration between all orders of government.
Stay tuned for updates.

Today in London, FCM President @TimTierney joined @CityofLdnOnt Mayor and Chair of FCM’s Big City Mayors’ Caucus, @JoshMorganLDN, Gatineau Mayor Maude Marquis-Bissonnette and Professor Romel Mostafa, Director of the Lawrence National Centre at the @iveybusiness to unveil the first national benchmark of how Canadian communities are experiencing trade-related pressures and responding on the ground.
As governments look to strengthen Canada's economic resilience and competitiveness, investing in local infrastructure will help communities support businesses, attract investment and position Canada for long-term growth.
This new research underscores the importance of investing in communities where growth, trade and opportunity happen.

For 26 years, @FCM_online's @GreenMuniFund has helped communities turn ambitious ideas into tangible results.
As @berryonline, Mayor of Kitchener and Chair of the Green Municipal Fund Council, noted: “Without the existence of GMF, many communities wouldn't have access to the expertise, the dollars or, quite frankly, the resources needed to take on some of these projects.”
Guided by leaders from across the municipal, federal and private sector, the GMF Council helps ensure investments from the Government of Canada continue to deliver local action with national impact—supporting projects that build a more sustainable, competitive and resilient Canada.

Good news today—as a direct result of FCM's advocacy, the federal government has just launched the Canada Rental Protection Fund, a key element of a multi-faceted approach needed to tackle homelessness and affordability in Canada.
FCM has long called for a national fund to protect affordable housing in Canada, prevent people from falling into homelessness and shield renters from renoviction. As a community-led approach, today's announcement on this fund is a positive step in the right direction.
We will continue working with the federal government to see a renewed National Housing Strategy in Budget 2026, which should incorporate the Canada Rental Protection Fund and create and preserve non-market housing.

Bonne nouvelle aujourd’hui : pour donner suite aux démarches de la FCM, le gouvernement fédéral a lancé le Fonds canadien de protection des loyers, un élément important d’une approche à plusieurs volets pour lutter contre l’itinérance et améliorer le logement abordable partout au pays.
La FCM réclame depuis longtemps la création d’un fonds national pour préserver les logements abordables, pour prévenir l’itinérance et pour protéger les locataires contre les « rénovictions ». En tant qu’approche pilotée par le secteur du logement communautaire, cette annonce représente un pas dans la bonne direction.
Nous continuerons à travailler avec le gouvernement fédéral afin que la Stratégie nationale sur le logement soit renouvelée au budget 2026. Cette stratégie devrait intégrer le Fonds canadien de protection des loyers et veiller à créer et préserver des logements hors marché.
