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.

Preparing for the Prosecution of Breaches of International Criminal and Humanitarian Law in Iraq
5007062743 D003871001 P002061001
This project aims to address the lack of accountability for atrocities committed by Daesh by supporting the investigation of breaches of International Criminal and Humanitarian Law (ICHL) in Iraq. Although Daesh’s crimes in Iraq are widely publicized by a range of human rights bodies and the media, the Commission for International Justice and Accountability (CIJA) focuses on conducting evidence-gathering operations in line with international standards in order to prepare criminal case files. These case files eventually form the basis of prosecutions targeting mid to high-level offenders. The CIJA concurrently provides capacity building support and mentorship to local counterparts and officials.

Safer Dementia Friendly Communities Project
22745
The “Safer Dementia Friendly Communities Initiative” is a partnership between the Alzheimer Society of Cornwall and District, Cornwall Police and Ontario Provincial Police to create a safer community for those living with dementia. The project will help to increase awareness of wandering, helping caregivers prepare if the person they are caring for goes missing, and helping the public recognize a lost individual. The project has 3 components: 1) Implementation of Project Lifesaver locating radio frequency (RF) technology in the region (Finding Faster): The purchase of RF technology would provide peace of mind for caregivers and support to first responders in the event that an individual living with dementia goes missing.
