Budget Advocacy

Across the province the demands that local governments face are becoming increasingly complex. From budget shortfalls, to an infrastructure deficit, aging populations, and a looming social housing crisis, the list of challenges facing the municipal sector continues to grow. AMCTO's budget advocacy is policy advice from municipal public servants. It is designed to enable stronger local governments and healthier local communities.
