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.

Dangerous Jobs: Safe Workplaces
WP230552
Through this 29-month project, the Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs (CAFC) will help advance women’s economic security, prosperity, and representation in leadership and decision-making roles. Specifically, the project will address the needs and barriers to equality for women in the firefighting industry by creating, piloting and evaluating anti-bullying strategies and through the development of mitigation strategies. The statements themselves will promote understanding and help to depersonalize the context of bullying, support victims and encourage an accountable, respectful, and safe workplace. The development of these statements, in consultation with CAFC members, will result in the provision of educational materials and a code of conduct to promote an anti-bullying culture within the sector. An external evaluator will measure and assess the impact of the systemic change project
