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.

Online and offline violent extremist narratives and their influence on the reported rise of GBV in Eastern Ontario
GV230362
Through this 27-month project, Carleton University will conduct research that will help improve GBV services for at-risk groups. It will assess the impact of ideologically motivated violent extremism (IMVE) on intimate partner violence (IPV), gender-based violence (GBV) and anti-2SLGBTQIA+ violence in rural Eastern Ontario. To do so, the project will collect and analyse online social media data; conduct semi-structured interviews; and survey community-based workers and those with lived experiences. The project team will use the knowledge gained through this research to identify policy and legal gaps at the municipal, provincial, and federal levels and make recommendations to improve anti-GBV policy. It will also develop educational tools for schools and community workers in Eastern Ontario communities that may be used as a model for other rural communities across the country, contributing to the prevention of IPV, GBV and anti-2SLGBTQIA+ violence in Canada. Carleton University will engage with academia, media, the United Way of Eastern Ontario, and the public to share information on the research findings.
