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.

A Place of Respite and Recovery for Trafficked Women
ON21679
This 28-month project will support a feminist response and recovery from the current impacts of COVID-19, through systemic change. St. Mary of Egypt Refuge will achieve this by collaborating with partner organizations to organize workshops to engage with women with lived experience, towards developing and piloting a program to better support and address the needs of Human Traffic (HT) survivors. In collaboration with a network of community organizations, the project will produce recommendations to enhance practices and policies to prevent HT and support HT survivors.
At the end of the project, the organization will have contributed to addressing systemic barriers by increasing networks and collaboration to accelerate systemic change, supporting positive distribution of authority, voices, and decision-making power, and advancing inclusive policies and practices to support women’s equality.
The piloted tools and approaches as well as recommendations resulting from this project will be shared widely with the participant HT survivors, relevant community organizations and institutions to inform practices and policies.

The red thread: menstruation, economic equality and women's empowerment
QC21603
This 28-month project will support a feminist response to and recovery from the current impacts of COVID-19 through systemic change. To achieve this, the Réseau québécois d’action pour la santé des femmes plans to heighten the visibility and reduce the menstrual vulnerability of young women in vulnerable circumstances. With this in mind, the Réseau québécois d’action pour la santé des femmes plans to meet with young women in precarious circumstances so that they can share their experiences, and to strengthen solidarity among community and institutional stakeholders by informing them about the systemic barriers inherent in practices and policies that keep menstrual precariousness out of sight, to engage government decision makers in helping women access products free of charge in their living environments, and to develop an information kit to raise media awareness about the importance of making menstrual products an essential need.
By the end of the project, the organization will have helped eliminate systemic barriers by promoting inclusive policies and practices, by expanding networks and collaboration to accelerate systemic change and by changing persistent and harmful gender norms and attitudes in support of women’s equality.
The Réseau québécois d’actions pour la santé des femmes will also organize a Canada-wide discussion panel to examine best practices with stakeholders from across the country who have worked on the issue of menstrual precariousness. This virtual event will compare needs and identify solutions to be implemented in Quebec.
