Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Westsyde Road Multi-Use Pathway: Phase 2
The project will construct a 470m multi-use pathway (MUP) which is the second phase of the non-motorized pathway that will provide residents and visitors an accessible, separated, multi-use facility to walk, cycle, and roll safely between community destinations on Whispering Pines I.R. #4. This second phase will complete the off-road MUP on the east side of Westsyde Rd., which will be the first of its kind on I.R. #4. This MUP will help address safety concerns related to walking and cycling along Westsyde Rd. and encourage more active transportation use as the current roadway has no pedestrian or bicycle facilities or lighting.

First Response Fund - Global 2025
7471510 P015011001
The First Response Fund (FRF) is a global humanitarian pooled fund that resources grassroots, local, life-saving humanitarian responses led by women-led and women’s rights organizations (WLO/WROs). The FRF leverages the global network of over 50 national, regional and multiregional Women’s and Feminist Funds (W/FF) to support WROs/WLOs to provide fast and effective humanitarian services in ODA-eligible countries, including to communities that may not be reached otherwise. The FRF supports WROs/WLOs to provide humanitarian response services in their communities, with a focus on humanitarian aid to high-need groups who often face barriers to access, including refugees and internally displaced people, women with disabilities, gender expansive and transgender people, Indigenous and Black women, rural women, and those at the intersection of many of these identities.
This project represents Canada’s support to the First Response Fund. Specific funding amounts, and targeted countries, will be identified based on humanitarian need, coordinated humanitarian response plans, and FRF members’ delivery capacity, as per the FRF’s Operational Manual. The use of Canada’s financial contributions will be limited to prioritized geographical areas in UN Humanitarian Appeals and/or UNCHR Refugee Response Plans.
