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.

Permanent Public Transit Program - Rural Transit Solutions Fund
The overall goal of the proposed rural transit solution is to address the needs of First Nation communities in Northern Ontario. The initial phase is to improve existing services and add new sustainable services for nine First Nation communities. There is interest to support the advancement of social, environmental, and economic reconciliation by providing opportunities to First Nations to a fair and equal participation in the economy. This is even more supported by the sector demand for job seekers and the urgency to develop and push the green agenda. This can be achieved by various means, including by buses, that are less polluting than individual cars.
