What is the Participatory Budget? 

Every year, the Participatory Budget allows citizens to submit ideas aimed at improving the quality of life throughout the city of Montréal, or in a neighbourhood in their own borough. This initiative allows you not only to propose projects, but also to vote for them to be carried out. 

 How does the participatory budget work? 

1- Citizens submit their project ideas.  

2- The city or boroughs analyse the ideas received, developing them into feasible projects or improving them. They then assess the feasibility of the projects and draw up a final list to be put to the vote. 

3- The public then votes.  

4- The projects that receive the most votes are implemented, within the limits of the allocated budget.
