Explore our Budget 2026 analysis

Federal program directory

Every federal program GC InfoBase reports: those in the Departmental Plans from 2017-18 to 2026-27, and those reported only in actual spending (organizations that file no plan, such as Crown corporations, and programs before 2018-19): 2332 programs. Each page shows what the program does (from its department's Program Inventory), its actual spending, what each plan forecast, its employees, and the budget measures we could link to it.

See which forecasts moved the most on Biggest changes in federal spending plans.
