1984, c. 38, s. 171.

1. In this act,

(a)  the expression “municipal corporation” includes any corporation or association empowered to administer, for municipal purposes, a territory legally recognized as a municipality;

(b)  the expression “winter works” means municipal works for which the Government of Canada grants a subsidy within the limits of its Municipal Winter Works Incentive Program for the relief of unemployment.

R. S. 1964, c. 178, s. 1 (part).

2. The Minister of Municipal Affairs, on the recommendation of the Commission municipale du Québec, is authorized to approve any by-law enacted by a municipal corporation for the carrying out of winter works.

The approval so given shall render the by-law incontestable and exempt from any other approval, either for the carrying out of the works or for any loan to meet the cost thereof.

Such approval is valid for the complete carrying out of the works provided for by the by-law even if continued after the end of the period during which they are subsidized as winter works.

R. S. 1964, c. 178, s. 2; 1977, c. 5, s. 14.

3. The Government shall pay to any municipal corporation carrying out winter works the following amounts, to wit:

(a)  the subsidy received from the Federal Government;

(b)  an additional amount equal to fourfifths of such subsidy.

Such sums shall not exceed the amount which serves as the basis in calculating the subsidy.

R. S. 1964, c. 178, s. 3; 1977, c. 5, s. 14.

4. If the works carried out by the municipal corporation are otherwise subsidized, the amount provided for in paragraph b of section 3 shall not exceed the difference between the whole cost of the works and the total of all other subsidies.

R. S. 1964, c. 178, s. 4.

5. The sums payable by the Government under this act shall be taken out of the consolidated revenue fund up to the amount of the subsidy received from the Government of Canada and the balance shall be paid out of the moneys voted for such purpose by the Legislature.

Notwithstanding section 58 of the Financial Administration Act (chapter A-6), the balance of the appropriation voted for the purposes of this act and unexpended at the close of any fiscal year shall remain available until the ensuing thirtieth of September.

R. S. 1964, c. 178, s. 5; 1970, c. 17, s. 96; 1977, c. 5, s. 14.

6. This Act shall operate notwithstanding the provisions of sections 2 and 7 to 15 of the Constitution Act, 1982 (Schedule B of the Canada Act, chapter 11 in the 1982 volume of the Acts of the Parliament of the United Kingdom).
