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.

Inuinnait Voices from the Diveky Collection
LHOV-04-003
In 2021, PI/KHS received a donation of 276 Inuinnaqtun/Inuktitut recordings by George Diveky from 1973-77 during time spent teaching in the Arctic communities of Kugaaruk and Kugluktuk. George envisioned the recording project as a platform for documenting the region's rapidly vanishing language and oral history. The recordings contain a variety of Inuit recollections and stories, and rare retelling of the pan-Inuit mythological pantheon in the Inuinnaqtun language and from an Inuinnait regional perspective. It also includes rare first-hand Inuit accounts of encounters with early Arctic explorers, including Rasmussen's Fifth Thule Expedition (1923).
The main goal of this project is to make the important language and cultural content of these recordings accessible to Inuit across the Arctic; ensure long-term storage, preservation, and accessibility of Inuinnaqtun and Inuinnait culture; advance knowledge and understanding of Inuinnait history, language, traditions and culture through accessibility; increase the number of primary Inuinnaqtun sources available for language learners to consult Inuinnaqtun terminology and listen to correct pronunciations; support digital oral histories and songs to be shareable and accessible to the public.
