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.

Algonquin Trail North Active Transportation Enhancements
The applicant, The County of Renfrew (ON) is seeking funds to rehabilitation and enhancement of all-seasons trail along decommissioned railway. Connects towns, villages and cities (and employment hubs) through length of the county. In addition to AT users, the trail is used by ATVs from May-November and snowmobiles during the winter. Besides the connectivity improvements, the applicant also states this project benefits with lower Green House Gas emissions (GHGe). GHGs will be greatly reduced as a result of this AT corridor and the reduction in automobile use for commuting, social outings, access to recreation centres and travel to and from school.

Improving Data for Better Health Service Delivery
7454567 P007564001
This initiative will build from GAC-funded "BASE-Building a Baseline for SRHR Data in Mozambique" also known as "SARA" and will focus on improving the quality of evidence-based and routine data to contribute and facilitate decision-making focusing on sexual reproductive maternal, neonatal, and child health (SRMNCH). The proposed initiative aims to update two surveys, the Service Availability and Readiness Assessment (SARA) and the Service Assessment and the STEPwise Approach to NCD Risk Factor Surveillance (STEPs). WHO methodology will be used in both. It will also conduct an assessment report on the barriers afftecting demand for reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health services in Mozambique.
Most of the project’s activities will be related to data collection and processing. However, since some activities under the STEPs survey will generate medical waste in the form of syringes and other medical material to collect blood samples for screening for non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, the project falls under Category B of the EIP Screening Tool.
