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 Indigenous Language Learning Resources
LHOV-04-013
A donation was made to the Manitoba Indigenous Cultural Education Centre (MICEC) of more than 6,400 Indigenous education materials which included 38 teaching manuals varying in length from 50 pages to 200 pages. These teaching manuals were led by the Manitoba Native Education Department in partnership with First-language speakers and Indigenous community linguists from 1971 - 1985 to encourage Indigenous language learning. This project will digitize, catalogue and preserve digital copies of teaching manuals within the MICEC Heritage Collection, while still being made available to Indigenous Language learners and community members, including the Indigenous language learning community.

Stó:lō Genealogy Preservation Project
LHOV-04-014
The Stó:lō Genealogy Office has many undigitized files containing valuable family history, xwelmexw (ancestral) names, oral history notes, Stó:lō Veteran research, placenames research, publications, and more. This project will be a continuation to digitize a genealogical collection of records and placename collection and the transcription of placenames and xwelmexw names from those records. As time permits, additional record collections within the office will be digitized. The funding would assist in continued capacity building, third-party training opportunities, and data sovereignty, storage, community sharing, and training for the genealogy assistant.
