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.

Masonry Jeun'aide House
300-53436
Complete reconstruction of two façades of the CRC Maison Jeun`Aide because of worrying signs that could be dangerous for the safety of pedestrians walking around the building. The expert visits have identified, among other things, a significant curvature at the top of the building (ox belly phenomenon) as well as traces of moisture in the walls. The spandrels (shelves), under the windows and/or doors, are damaged. Sills made of porous materials absorb water and allow it to seep more easily into the wall under the doors and/or windows, which can cause damage to the siding and/or components underneath. Ultimately, it was recommended to proceed with the complete reconstruction of the affected facades. It should be noted that the building was built in 1891.
