Contribution Rebate Program
The City of Ottawa operates a municipal contribution rebate program allowing individual donors to receive a rebate on their donations to municipal election campaigns.
Individual donors who donate more than $25 are eligible to receive a rebate from the City of Ottawa.
| Individual Donation Amount | Value of Rebate | Your Cost After Rebate |
|---|---|---|
| $25 or less | $0 | $25.00 |
| $25.01 | $12.51 | $12.50 |
| $50.00 | $25.00 | $25.00 |
| $100.00 | $50.00 | $50.00 |
| $150.00 | $62.50 | $87.50 |
| $250.00 | $75.00 | $175.00 |
| $500.00 | $75.00 | $425.00 |
| $1,200.00 | $75.00 | $1,125.00 |
Note: The maximum rebate to an individual shall not exceed $75. Corporations and trade unions are not eligible for the rebate.
Rebate cheques are issued by the City of Ottawa to individual donors who have made an eligible contribution.
Rebate Calculation
- If the contribution by an individual to a candidate is $25 or less, there is no rebate for that contribution.
- If the contribution by an individual to a candidate is equal to or greater than $25.01 and not more than $100, the rebate is 50% of the total contribution.
- If the contribution by an individual to a candidate is greater than $100, the rebate is $50 plus 25% of the amount by which the contribution exceeds $100, to a maximum rebate of $75.
- If an individual makes more than one contribution to a candidate, the same criteria apply using the sum of the contributions to compute the rebate.
- If an individual makes a contribution to more than one candidate, the same criteria apply using the sum of the contributions to compute the rebate, provided that no single contribution is less than $25.01.
