Which governments regarder ?
The words on this page: 13 definitions, including 4 acronyms, no jargon
- City
- On this site, "city" means ALL the governments that serve a person who lives there: national, regional and municipal together. When we write "Montreal", that set is what we mean.
- Municipality
- The city hall alone, and nothing else. Its revenue, its spending, its debt. That is a small part of what a resident carries: the rest comes from the other two governments.
- Tier
- One of the governments that administer you. Here there are up to three: national, regional (province, state, Land…) and municipal. Each collects its own taxes and pays its own services.
- Per capita
- The total amount divided by the number of people. Note: each government is divided by the population of ITS territory: the national one by the whole country, the city by its residents only.
- Resident public footprint
- Our way of adding the three governments to give an order of magnitude. This is not an official account: these are three calculations on three different populations, placed end to end.
- Scope
- What is counted and what is not. "MUNICIPAL ONLY" counts only the municipality; "all governments" adds the province and the federal tier. Two very different amounts can both be right.
- Vintage
- The financial year of the figure: the fiscal year the report covers. It is not always the same from one government to another, and the page writes it each time.
- Own revenue
- Money a government collects itself: taxes, levies, fees, fines. What it receives from another government is excluded, otherwise the same tax would be counted twice.
- Transfer
- Money one government pays to another: for example Ottawa paying Quebec for health. This is not a new tax: it is a tax already collected, moved.
- RPC
- Canada Pension Plan: the public pension scheme, outside Quebec
- RRQ
- Quebec Pension Plan: Quebec's counterpart to the CPP
- GFSM
- Government Finance Statistics Manual: the IMF standard that defines how to consolidate public accounts
- S13
- the European code for all of a country's general government, every layer together
GOVERNMENT STACK
Mississauga Government Stack
The public administrations around Mississauga residents.

Les public finances autour of a resident de Mississauga.
Indicateur du Stack, construit à partir des moyennes par habitant (Canada: activité fédérale en Ontario ÷ 16.12M, Ontario: province, HEALTH, éducation et autres municipalités ÷ 16.12M, Mississauga ÷ 796,000). Ce n'est pas la dépense mesurée dans Mississauga, ni une consolidation GFSM, ni une facture fiscale personnelle.

How to read this check
Le plafond est la dépense consolidée de TOUTES les administrations dans la province (StatCan 36-10-0450), recalculée au dénominateur de la ville: le secteur hors ville sur la population provinciale, la ville sur la sienne. L'empreinte affichée peut le dépasser parce qu'une part des impôts fédéraux perçus ici est dépensée ailleurs au Canada: cette part est affichée comme cause, pas cachée. Elle peut aussi rester dessous: les gouvernements autochtones et le RPC/RRQ ne sont pas des paliers displayed.

NE PAS additionner avec les lignes par palier: chacune divise par SA population et porte SON fiscal year; their sum is not the resident's deficit. |
Chaque ligne = une entité des comptes officiels (contrôles passés); le calcul de chaque cellule est dans la cellule elle-même quand publié. « Ensemble des administrations (S13) » est l'agrégat du FMI: les lignes « dont » et la municipalité sont DEDANS, ne pas additionner; Σ des « dont » dépasse le S13 (transferts counted deux fois avant élimination). La ligne « Empreinte publique du résident » est la même formule que Dépenses par catégorie (G = T + D): ce n'est PAS une consolidation au sens GFSM, et elle ne se déduit pas des lignes du dessus: dénominateurs et exercices différents. Monnaies locales: conversion USD On the Side-by-side comparison.
Why these rows do not add up
Each tier is counted per capita of its own territory: le fédéral par habitant du pays, la province par habitant de la province, la ville par résident. Additionner trois dénominateurs différents ne donne aucun chiffre réel: c'est pourquoi la somme des soldes ci-dessus (CAD 165) is not the resident's balance (−CAD 913). This gap breaks down exactly into four lines: See the calculation, row by row ↑
What "receiving" means: 60% of this spending is services delivered or transfers; the rest is an accounting share
Une dépense nationale divisée par la population du pays n'est pas un service received, même quand le montant par habitant est juste. Chaque cause est classée selon ce qu'elle est RÉELLEMENT pour un résident: la classification dépend de la cause ET du palier qui paie.

WHERE THE FIGURES COME FROMOpen the official receipt, tier by tier
Each tier is a menu: closed, you read its name, vintage and Population; open, its line items. Each row is one line from the official accounts of un tier: tax, levy, contribution or deficit: divided by the Population of ce tier. Federal tax ÷ 41 million Canadians is not what a Montrealer pays; property tax ÷ 1.8 million Montrealers is closer. Native currency first. Transfers change height because the payer and the recipient do not share a Population: same money, two denominators.
Phone: the line, its kind, the calculation. The source note is on the calculation hover.

Vintage: all tiers in 2024. Federal and provincial: StatCan 36-10-0450, measured in Ontario, not allocated from a national total. Functions: StatCan 10-10-0005 (consolidated CCOFOG). City: consolidated FIR. Unlike cities in B.C. and Quebec, FIR already books depreciation and interest INSIDE the functions: the city therefore has no separate "depreciation" cause. Direct federal spending on goods and services is not split by function at provincial scale by StatCan. Population Mississauga: 796,000 (2021 census).
