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.

Gaza Crisis - emergency response and relief supplies - CRCS 2023
7456259 P013898001
January 2024 – Hostilities between Hamas and Israel erupted on 7 October 2023, resulting in a scale of violence unseen in the past decade. The current humanitarian crisis is unfolding in connection with longstanding Israeli occupation policies, the closure of the Gaza Strip imposed by Israel and Egypt, and recurring rounds of hostilities between Israeli forces and members of Hamas and other non-state armed groups in the Gaza Strip. In response to the rising humanitarian needs, the International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement provides emergency humanitarian assistance in the Gaza Strip.
With GAC’s support, the Canadian Red Cross Society (CRCS) dispatches solicited emergency relief supplies to support relief operations in Gaza. These supplies include blankets and hygiene kits to meet the basic needs of the most vulnerable people impacted by the crisis.
