Canada-British Columbia
Infrastructure Program
Program Guide and Application Kit
Foreword
This Program Guide and
Online Application Kit for the Canada/British Columbia Infrastructure
Program contains an overview of the program and instructions for
completing the online application process on SIMSI – the Shared
Information Management System for Infrastructure.
Applicants who intend
to request funding for more than one project may do so in the online
environment. If you have more than one project, on each application you must
indicate the priority level you place on each of your projects. (eg.
1, 2, 3, etc.). The system will not allow duplicate priority numbers.
For applicants who do
not have Internet access, please contact the appropriate ministry in
Section 12 for further assistance.
There are addresses and
contact numbers in this guide.
Please note that in
some cases applicants may be asked to supply additional information.
PLEASE NOTE – SIMSI

further notice, the SIMSI Online Application system will
