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.

Nelson Pride: Building Sustainable Capacity through Training and Direction
SO230110
Through this 21-month project, Nelson Pride Society will build capacity in West Kootenay 2SLGBTQI+ community organizations and networks to advance 2SLGBTQI+ equality. The project will help provide a clear structure and processes, and offer training to further understanding within Nelson Pride Society and its network. Nelson Pride will benefit from a defined direction and growth plan for increasing internal capacity to provide more opportunities for the community, which will lessen the burden on queer organizers who have traditionally funded events, taken on liability, and provided services without compensation. The project will aim to instill consistency and formal accountability which will help to build trust and communication lines for the long-term sustainability of Pride in the Kootenays. The project will include organizational learning, collaboration and cross-organizational learning, and strategic plan development.
