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.

Blackfoot Gender Justice and Relationality Project
SO220098
Through this 28-month project, Opokaa'sin Early Intervention Society will increase its ability to prevent and address gender-based violence (GBV) against Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA+ people, with a focus on Indigenous women and 2SLGBTQQIA+ individuals living in southern Alberta who identify as members of the Blackfoot Confederacy. This will be achieved by undertaking organizational learning to address key information gaps, and to create knowledge-based resources that aim to increase understanding of Indigenous gender and sexual diversity and prevent sexualized forms of violence against Indigenous women and 2SLGBTQQIA+ people; expanding organizational networks through the formation of an Opokaa’sin-centred relationality network that will work towards advancing a Blackfoot vision of gender justice; collaborating on initiatives to drive change, including the development of Blackfoot gender relationality agreements and wise practices for government policies and community projects; and developing advocacy strategies in service of honouring, promoting, and supporting Blackfoot gender diversity and inclusion.
This project will engage community members and various local Indigenous groups and agencies in guiding the creation of a framework for hearing and propelling Blackfoot perspectives on gender violence prevention and gender justice. The approaches taken will be Blackfoot-grounded and will incorporate conventional perspectives from knowledge keepers and Elders, along with the diverse lived experience knowledge held by Blackfoot women and 2SLGBTQQIA+ community members.
By the end of the project, Opokaa'sin Early Intervention Society will have strengthened its capacity to prevent and address GBV against Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA+ people, with a focus on Indigenous women and 2SLGBTQQIA+ individuals living in southern Alberta.
