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.

162588
The objectives of the extension are aligned with the Canadian Immunization Research Network (CIRN) 2016 and the CIRN: COVID-19 Vaccine Readiness are:
• To maintain the baseline activities of CIRN. This includes support for its infrastructure of networks to facilitate collaborative research among vaccine and immunization researchers, clinicians, public health professionals and policy makers.
• To support CIRN’s COVID-19 activities related to critical research in the research areas of the COVID-19 Vaccine Readiness grant (vaccine clinical trials [incl. vaccine safety and effectiveness studies]; population prioritization and modelling; vaccine hesitancy and uptake; and coordination and information sharing. The research activities within these research areas will address the evolving COVID-19 vaccine research needs of Canada, and will provide vaccine-related research outcomes to inform effective, equitable and timely COVID-19 public health decision-making .

Canadian Immunization Research Network: COVID-19 Vaccine Readiness Funding Opp
157916
The purpose of this funding opportunity is to support readiness preparations for CIRN to undertake urgent activities related to COVID-19 vaccine clinical trials and to provide vaccine-related research outcomes that will inform effective, equitable and timely COVID-19 public health decision-making. The proposal will address ALL of the following objectives:
• Act with a sense of urgency and coordinate with all relevant stakeholders, including federal, provincial and territorial partners, to ensure Canadian readiness for COVID-19 vaccine clinical trials. Meeting this objective will help to ensure sufficient COVID-19 vaccine clinical trial capacity and infrastructure are in place when needed and will support the accelerated evaluation of COVID-19 vaccine(s) in Canada.
• Proactively communicate with all relevant national and international stakeholders to ensure CIRN is aware of, and aligned with (wherever possible), global COVID-19 vaccine clinical trial strategies to provide the highest possible level of evidence on the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccine(s).
• Assess various models of population prioritization and perform modelling to support the development of evidence-based recommendations for effective and equitable program design and implementation, and knowledge mobilization to mitigate the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Prepare the general public, high-risk populations and the public health community for deployment of COVID-19 vaccine(s), which includes coordinating and/or conducting research related to vaccine hesitancy, acceptance and uptake, and the identification of targeted and culturally appropriate communication and roll-out strategies to optimize uptake.
• Seek opportunities for harmonized data collection, open data sharing, and real-world data sharing with relevant knowledge-users to support a timely and effective COVID-19 public health response within and across all jurisdictions in Canada.
