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.

National Disaster Mitigation Projects
Prince Rupert is situated adjacent to a deep-water harbour. During a tsunami, extreme high and low water events may occur, resulting in potential loss of life and serious impacts to critical infrastructure. The proposed project will analyze data specific to the geography of the region to determine the potential levels of inundation and tidal velocities during a high water event in the Prince Rupert harbour. Depending on the nature of the tsunami, the harbour may be susceptible to run up flooding and stacking before an energetic drainage of the basin. The project findings will support the detail in the Risk Assessment Information Template (RAIT) which will assist all levels of government in making more informed decisions.
