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.

CAN-TF1: Heavy Urban Search and Rescue (HUSAR) and all hazards emergency response team.
24212
To help maintain the capabilities of Canada’s HUSAR Task Forces, this project will support the continued classification maintenance of Canada Task Force–1 (CAN-TF1), based in Vancouver, British Columbia, as a heavy urban search and rescue and all-hazards response team. CAN-TF1 will achieve this by maintaining required skill sets; obtaining and maintaining essential equipment and facilities; completing the training requirements of the Task Force’s 12 special teams; participating in a full-scale deployment exercise; and attending monthly meetings with PS and other Task Forces. These efforts will ensure the Task Force is effectively equipped to respond to disasters, increase interoperability between HUSAR teams, and improve capabilities for efficient, effective, and coordinated emergency response.
