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.

Digitizing the Documentary Heritage of Cold Lake First Nations 2024-25
LHOV-05-091
In 2022–2023, Cold Lake First Nations (CLFN) initiated foundational efforts to preserve the Nation's documentary heritage by creating an Archives Policy, an Archives Committee, and a Facility Plan. This led to CLFN's 2023–2024 Listen, Hear Our Voices project "Digitizing the Documentary Heritage of Cold Lake First Nations." This project focuses on digitizing at-risk items needing urgent intervention, such as oral history maps and media (cassettes, videos and floppy disks), expanding the Nation's digital storage capacity, and researching into accessibility models.
As a result of the 2022–2023 project, it has become apparent that next steps should be continued digitization of paper-based records into a digital inventory. This will be achieved using a scanner and software package purchased this year.
