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.

Active Transportation Network Assessment for the Transportation & Active Mobility Plan
In 2021, Township of Langley (Township) council unanimously adopted an ambitious Climate Action Strategy (CAS), which aims to reduce community emissions by 45% by 2030 and 100% by 2050. This plan is anchored by five ‘big moves’ and over 140 specific actions. One of the ‘big moves’ is for ‘more than half of current passenger vehicle trips be made by more sustainable means by 2030’. The Project will collect information and data from the Township and regional sources to establish safety classifications and design standards of the current network. The Township’s network will then be compared against modern Provincial and regional safety and design standards and targets, such as those established in the ‘British Columbia Active Transportation (BCAT) Design Guide 2019’, and in TransLink’s ‘State of Cycling in Metro Vancouver 2019’ document. The results will identify gaps in the system, challenges that may be preventing use, and prioritize locations for improvements that would increase active transportation use.

Town of High River Active Transportation Plan
The Town of High River is about a 30-minute drive south of Calgary and a 45-minute drive from Kananaskis Country. While the Town does not have an Active Transportation Network Plan, it does have a Parks and Trails Open Spaces Master Plan (P&TOSMP) that provides some guidance on where active transportation routes are desired, along with other ideas for expanding park use and environmental awareness. The High River Active Transportation Plan (ATP) would use the P&TOSMP as a starting point to help formalize this guidance and provide the Town with an implementation plan including timing of each project and associated costs for expanding the network.
