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.

Commercial Cargo/Refrigeration Truck and Taskforce Scheduled Certification/Maintenance Training

This project's goal is to replace a cube van ensuring rapid team deployment, and to provide mandatory training and certification to its members in Canada Task Force 3 (CANTF-3). Acquiring a new, larger vehicle will allow movement and storage of larger loads of equipment and provide a means of refrigeration capabilities for the team and the affected community. This refrigeration vehicle could be used as a temporary morgue under extreme conditions. The project will deliver communications, search, medical, logistics and planning training to the structural collapse team members.
