Yes, they really do.
Why do you think you see a Fed Gov Sign on road work projects in Alberta. Its because the Feds directed money toward that individual project. The way Canada and the US are supposed to work in theory is that the Feds direct money - not for individ projects but for say infrastructure. The State can then spend that money on infrasructure where they want it.
The Feds are not supposed to be directing cash for specific State projects. There is a reason is called a Union.
