It is a matter of funding. Canada does not fund in the same way Quebec does. It's as simple as that.
Since this fall, Quebec has had a comprehensive program in place. That program is funded by the ministère de la Famille et des Aînés and a number of other departments, including, I believe, the department of municipal affairs, regions and land occupancy, or the ministère des Affaires municipales, des Régions et de l'Occupation du territoire, and the department of transport, or the ministère des Transports.
So, three or four departments are involved in this. They have put up money to fund projects, while the Canadian program consists of local initiatives.
Those initiatives come from the towns themselves. To answer your question, they don't receive as much support across Canada as they do in Quebec.
