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.

Digitizing Inuit Artistic Heritage
2021-0118
This project highlights the contributions and cultural resilience of Inuit artists, and it will enhance public appreciation for their art. Inuit artists face unique and systemic barriers to visibility by the Canadian public. Their art form is poorly understood despite being a key piece of Canada’s national artistic identity.
The Inuit Art Foundation (IAF) archive spans the development of modern Inuit art and represents artists from all media. The archive includes every community within Inuit Nunangat (Inuit regions) and reflects the incredible range of cultural and artistic practices among Inuit artists. This project will increase awareness of and access to a greater proportion of the IAF archive.
