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.

Dudley Street Walking and Cycling Improvements
This project involves the construction of pedestrian and cyclist infrastructure on Dudley Street between Dawes Avenue and Spadina Crescent. This connection was identified as a high priority for the bicycle network in the Active Transportation Plan. It will connect residential neighbourhoods with both employment areas such as the West Industrial Area and recreation and park spaces and the Meewasin river valley trail network.
Project components include:
• Two pedestrian and cyclist-activated signals: 1) at Dudley Street and Dawes Avenue, and 2) Dudley Street and Avenue P.
• One kilometre of multi-use pathway on the south side of Dudley Street in the industrial area from Dawes Avenue to Avenue P South including vertical curb and drainage upgrades.
• 800 metres of neighbourhood bikeway (also known as bike boulevard) on Dudley Street in the residential area from Avenue P to Spadina Crescent which will feature: Curb extensions and Raised crosswalks
• 1.25 kilometres of additional sidewalk; and
• All applicable signage and pavement markings for the new cycling facility on Dudley Street.

Beach Creek Waterfront Walkway and Viewing Platform
The Town proposes to construct a separated walkway adjacent to the newly constructed Memorial Roundabout at the intersection of Memorial Road and Highway 19A to create separation for pedestrians and cyclists and minimize conflicts.
The Town has invested heavily in active transportation networks over the years, especially those that connect the uptown and waterfront. The Memorial / 19A route is pivotal to this connection. It is heavily traveled by visitors and residents throughout the year, and all traffic must travel through the newly created roundabout to reach their destination. It is also the first experience of the waterfront for tourists, and acts as the gateway to our prized beach. A separated walkway and viewing platform therefore brings cohesion to the Town’s active transportation investments in this area, and will increase safety, accessibility, and ultimately increase usage
