The constraints of $BF$ topological gauge theories are used to construct Hamiltonians which are anti-commutators of the BRST and anti-BRST operators. Such Hamiltonians are a signature of Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFT's). By construction, both classes of topological field theories share the same phase spaces and constraints. We find that, for 2+1 and 1+1 dimensional space-times foliated as $M=\Sigma\times\IR$, a homomorphism exists between the constraint algebras of our TQFT and those of canonical gravity. The metrics on the two-dimensional hypersurfaces are also obtained.
