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.

2SLGBTQIA+ Policy Review and Youth Advisory Council

Agreement Number:

SO220226

Duration: from Aug 1, 2023 to Mar 31, 2024
Description:

Through this eight-month project, Gender Affirming Care Nova Scotia CIC (GACNS) will develop community-informed solutions to key barriers and gaps facing 2SLGBTQI+ communities. This will be achieved by addressing legal barriers to transitioning in Nova Scotia and providing queer youth with policy and governance education. This project will focus on the Nova Scotia Vital Statistics Act and Regulations; reducing wait times and costs associated with legal transitions; and creating mechanisms to address governmental, non-governmental, and private refusal to make documents, applications, and other means of providing personal information align with the Nova Scotian and Canadian human rights acts.

It will also seek to create, in partnership with community experts, a comprehensive education program for 2SLGBTQIA+ youth regarding policy and governance, providing them the tools to follow in our path towards inclusive policy and governance. GACNS will achieve this objective through internal policy consultations, policy drafting, workshopping, policy outreach, educational content and platform development, and continued consulting with public entities.

Through this 32-month project, The Manitoba Association of Friendship Centres Inc. will increase their ability to prevent and address gender-based violence against Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA+ people. This will be achieved by conducting outreach and awareness-raising campaigns in eleven communities throughout the province of Manitoba, where Manitoba’s Friendship Centres are located, by developing and delivering culturally appropriate training to staff and volunteers to enhance their understanding of gender-based violence, by developing and offering a public gathering where speakers, staff, and Centre delegates can learn from one another including survivors of gender-based violence, by establishing a network of educators and experts in their field that can provide support and services to Manitoba’s Friendship Centres, and by developing and implementing a comprehensive policy and procedural manual that will establish ongoing support for Indigenous women, girls, and two-spirit people.

By the end of the project, MAFC will have strengthened their capacity to prevent and address GBV against Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA+ people.
