Budget de la ville 2025 - Lutter pour l'abordabilité

In the new City of Ottawa budget, we're investing in what matters most. Public transit is one of our most vital services. Le transport en commun est l'un de nos services les plus vitaux. Et nous dépensons plus que jamais pour le transport en commun.

And we're spending more on transit than ever before. We're increasing the transit budget by 11% in 2025. We started the budget process with a $120-million shortfall in transit funding. And we still need other levels of government to give us our fair share to close the gap, so I'm continuing to work on that. But we're investing in transit at historic levels to make it more reliable for customers.

The new City of Ottawa budget is about investing in what matters most, and fighting for affordability - for you. Le nouveau budget de la Ville d'Ottawa consiste à investir dans ce qui compte le plus et à lutter pour l'accessibilité - pour vous.

Other cities have had tax increases of 9 or 10 per cent. I won't support any budget that does that in Ottawa. De nombreuses familles de notre communauté sont confrontées à une crise de l'accessibilité. Many families in our community are confronting an affordability crisis and a big tax increase adds to that burden. It adds to inflation for homeowners, renters, and small business owners. 

We've done the hard work over the past two years to find $208 million in savings and efficiencies. That's the equivalent of a 10.5 per cent tax increase. Nous réinvestissons ces économies dans ce qui compte le plus : embaucher des travailleurs d'urgence, améliorer les transports en commun et soutenir les plus vulnérables.
We're reinvesting those savings in what matters most: hiring emergency workers, improving public transit, and supporting the most vulnerable.

We're fighting for affordability with low tax increases, and we're investing in what matters most. Find out more at Ottawa.ca.

I've heard often from residents who are concerned about safety and about emergency response times. In this year's budget, we're adding 50 new positions to the police department. We're hiring another 45 paramedics and firefighters, and 10 bylaw officers. 

That's more than 100 new emergency workers who will improve service, reduce response times and make the city safer for everyone. Cela représente plus de 100 nouveaux travailleurs d'urgence qui amélioreront les services, réduiront les délais de réponse et rendront la ville plus sécuritaire pour tous.

Safety is one of our biggest priorities. To find out more about how we're investing in what matters most, go to Ottawa.ca.
