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.

An end to ageism against women in Chaudière-Appalaches
QC21600
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 des groupes de femmes Chaudière-Appalaches plans to help older women overcome the impacts of COVID-19 and improve their living conditions, which deteriorated significantly during the pandemic. More specifically, the project will tackle systemic barriers to ageism faced by older women in Chaudière-Appalaches: by deploying action research to identify concrete strategic recommendations to implement in the region; by documenting best practices through the provincial consultations of the Tables de groupes de femmes; by creating a community action plan aimed to ensure their full participation in society and democracy; and by increasing knowledge about ageism toward older women and ways to deconstruct it. Pilot project implementation will enable the application and evaluation of promising practices with women’s groups and other partners in the social-community network. The organization will seek out key stakeholders in the region to promote the promising practices identified and thereby promote the social, political and democratic participation of older women.
By the end of the project, the organization will have helped eliminate systemic barriers by promoting inclusive policies and practices; by encouraging a more effective and equitable division of resources; by increasing networks and collaboration to accelerate systemic change; by supporting a positive division of power, voice and decision-making authority; and by changing persistent and harmful gender norms and attitudes in support of women’s equality.
