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.

SO21942
This 12-month project will strengthen the capacity and networks of the Fernie Pride Society to advance LGBTQ2 equality. This will be achieved by building the organization's financial health, developing tools and resources and then training volunteers and partners in their use, and holding a 2SLGBTQ+ conference in the Columbia Basin for partner organizations and 2SLGBTQ+ community members in the region.
By the end of the project, the organization will have created a fundraising strategy and plans, tools, and resources on funding diversification, stakeholder engagement, and financial sustainability in order to support 2SLGBTQ+ organizations in the region. It will also have created a strong network of regional organizations to share knowledge and exist safely in a collaborative space.
