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.

Fredericton Northeast Growth Area Water System Extension
The Fredericton Northeast Growth Area Water System Extension Project in Fredericton, New Brunswick aims to provide essential water and sewer infrastructure for the immediate development of the Northeast Growth Area. This area will include a variety of residential developments, such as single detached dwellings, various forms of missing middle housing, and apartments from 4-8 floors. The project addresses the need for housing and infrastructure by constructing a water reservoir, a water booster station, linear water, sewer, and municipal infrastructure, and extending public water service to Sitansisk First Nation property. This project will enable approximately 4,000 new units, with an additional 900 units unlocked by the water booster station.
