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.

Strengthening Public Awareness and Indigenous Partnerships to Help Prevent the Spread of Invasive Species
FAP 2223-002
This project has four key components:
1. A national survey targeting the public will be conducted to assess knowledge on invasive species and key pathways of spread.
2. A communications strategy will be prepared based on the results of the national survey. This will inform invasive species awareness campaigns geared towards various target audiences, and key priority areas of concern.
3. Indigenous engagement will support the preparation of a series of recommendations and activities aimed at invasive species prevention, control and response, including a workshop in Year Two of the project.
4. A series of fact sheets will be produced profiling stories and voices of Indigenous peoples that will:
a) highlight how invasive species have directly impacted traditional practices.
b) demonstrate how Indigenous traditional knowledge can help prevent, limit and help control the spread of invasive species.
c) share best practices that Indigenous communities and organizations have used to stop the spread of invasive species.
