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.

Momentum: unlimited Afroqueer creation
SO220138
Degigned for the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, this 12-month project will allow the Massimadi Foundation to address obstacles and gaps with community-informed solutions. Actions to accomplish this goal consist in training and providing mentorship for young Black 2SLGBTQIA+ artists in writing short film scripts. The “Momentum: Unlimited Afroqueer Creation” team will form a jury, select candidates, and develop a training schedule including group workshops on theory and practical aspects of film led by artists, arts professionals, and specialists, as well as industry conferences on various professions in film. Group workshops, screenwriting mentorships, and individual writing sessions will help participants finalize their scripts. Participation in the REGARD short film festival will include panels and networking sessions which, along with organized events, will provide opportunities to meet local producers, distributors, and decision-makers in the film industry. These encounters will facilitate the development of Francophone queer filmmaking. Lastly, a 3-year monitoring tool will be developed to track the screenwriting projects’ progress after the program ends.
By the end of the project, the Massimadi Foundation will be better able to overcome challenges faced by 2SLGBTQIA+ communities – especially young people who are Black and queer – and to reduce discrimination against people of multiple intersecting identities.
