Results of the Montreal Participatory Budget

This data set contains information collected as part of the three editions of the City of Montreal's participatory budgeting. The data presents the results collected for each edition at each phase of the process, from the collection of ideas, to the citizen vote.

For the first edition of the participatory budget (BP1), the City first devoted $10 million from its 2020-2022 investment budget. The total budget allocated to projects was increased by $15 million, from $10 million to $25 million. The additional amount made it possible to finance 5 additional projects. For the second (BP2) third (BP3) editions, it has respectively reserved $31.5 million from its 2023-2032 10-year capital program and $45 million in the 2024-2033 10-year capital program. These amounts aim to carry out projects resulting from citizen proposals and chosen by the population. Among these amounts, for the last two editions, at least $10 million will be dedicated to projects proposed BY young people and their families (“youth seal”) or designed FOR young people, in connection with the youth theme.
