[1] As the title indicates, the above table summarizes the Government of Canada’s expenditures for the implementation of the provincial and territorial action plans under the Protocol for Agreements for Minority-Language Education and Second-Language Instruction 2019–2020 to 2020–2023 (the Protocol). The table does not reflect all expenditures that may be incurred. For example, the Protocol authorizes complementary contributions, which are intended for one-time requirements or “non-recurring” projects. They are provided to the provinces and territories subject to an equivalent or higher provincial or territorial annual contribution. Complementary contributions are not included in the planned expenditures under the Protocol and subsequent bilateral agreements.

[2] Only British Columbia, New Brunswick, Saskatchewan and the Northwest Territories have signed a multi-year bilateral agreement. The other provinces and territories have annual agreements.

[3] The current Protocol includes “an additional annual contribution for minority-language education.” This is a total additional contribution of $15 million per year to all provinces and territories.
