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.

Also, 19,000 people facing catastrophe levels of (IPC5), a first in the country’s recent history. The current increase in insecurity is further exacerbating humanitarian needs.

Aide d’urgence en santé – Appui à la réponse au choléra – Haïti - 2022
7446075 P012320001
November 2022 – On October 2, after more than three years without cases, Haiti reported cholera cases in the metropolitan area of Port-au-Prince. Since then, the disease has spread considerably to other regions of the country. As of November 14, according to the Pan American Health Organization there have been more than 7,500 suspected cholera cases. Furthermore, this cholera resurgence is happening in a complex operational context, with rampant insecurity, access constraints, and insufficient infrastructures to meet humanitarian needs.
With GAC’s support, the Pan American Health Organization helps to meet the immediate health needs of crisis-affected people in Haiti. Project activities include: (1) strengthening epidemiological surveillance; (2) supporting early and appropriate case management; (3) training health community workers; and (4) providing medical supplies and vaccinations as appropriate.
