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.

Harvest Leading Contemporary Species Management Planning
POLAR-2526-0006
This project will address priorities related to ecosystems and well-being and is designed to explore how Inuit cultural norms and traditional ecological knowledge held by Elders and harvesters, which has helped sustain ecosystems throughout Nunatsiavut for millennia, can guide contemporary ecosystem management efforts. By focusing on Inuit knowledge regarding species management and sustainable harvest, this study will also address the priority of well-being as it will reconnect Elders and youth and foster self-determination in research and management.
