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.

Accessible Active Transportation Crossing of the Rideau Canal at Hartwells Locks, Ottawa, ON
The Hartwells Locks are currently a major crossing for pedestrians and Cyclists over the historic Rideau Canal. This crossing falls along an important desire line for cyclists and pedestrians with Carleton University and major Canal/Rideau River Pathways representing major destinations separated by the Canal. The proposed study would provide an accessible, level crossing eliminating steps- and accommodating all users comfortably. A major AT barrier to accessibility would be removed at relatively low cost (as compared with the $21M nearby Flora Bridge also spanning the Rideau Canal). The strategy would be to provide a short (10m), deployable ramp that can be moved in place when the locks are closed (presenting no new obstacle to marine traffic using the Canal).
