This page provides a tool for exploring the expenditures of the federal government during three fiscal year periods, 2009/10, 2010/11, 2011/12. The data is provided by the Treasury Board of Canada at this page. The data here corresponds to the spreadsheet titled 'Authorities and Expenditures by vote'. A news report about the data release can be found here.
How to use this tool
The graphs below show the distribution of the budget items across government departments, and over increasing $ amounts. By clicking on the charts you can filter the data, and see the list of actual budget items in the table below. Note that the size of the bars in the charts corresponds to the number of budget items, not the amount of dollars.
In the long graph on the left side is the list of all government bodies receiving funds. Click any name to filter the budget items to just that government body.
The six bar charts in the center show the distribution of money spent and allocated during the three fiscal years covered. The horizontal axes (x-axis) show the $ amount of budget items, increasing by factors of 10, i.e. 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000, etc. The abbreviations on the x-axis are k thousands, M millions, G billions. The vertical axes (y-axis) shows the number of budget items having those values.
You can select a range on these center charts by clicking and dragging the mouse, and then slide the range around to see the values on all the charts and table update simultaneously.
