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.

Becoming a role model in ending sexual orientation and gender-based discrimination
SO220063
Through this 13-month project, the Assembly of First Nations (AFN) will increase its ability to prevent or address gender-based violence against Indigenous women, girls, or 2SLGBTQQIA+ people. This will be achieved by identifying remedies for any future gender-based discrimination, or discrimination based on sexual orientation, leading to a more respectful atmosphere for all AFN member First Nations, staff, and partners.
A literature, document and policy review and analysis will be conducted within the AFN. This will include a review of all applicable laws, AFN policies and code of conduct. During this review, there will be engagement and briefing with First Nations leadership, including internal AFN committees and Chiefs in Assembly forums. The process for addressing allegations and complaints will be critically examined with the engagement of an external firm to support survey design, methodology, sampling, and data analysis.
A report will be developed, which will include recommendations for policy and process changes to make within the Assembly of First Nations; and to ensure AFN as a role model in ending gender-based violence.
