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.

Pardon Me 7th Step
22953
With this funding, the National 7th Step Chapter will further develop, administer, and oversee low‑barrier record suspension support services through its Halifax and Calgary Chapters. The project will address administrative and financial barriers faced by individuals with criminal records, including the costs associated with applying for a record suspension and limited access to safe, confidential support spaces. By expanding office capacity and providing direct one‑on‑one assistance, the project aims to reduce barriers that prevent individuals (particularly those who are marginalized or underserved) from reintegrating into their communities and accessing meaningful employment, housing, and social opportunities.
