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.

The visibility of LGBTQ+ communities in rural Francophone New Brunswick
SO20177
This 29-month project will strengthen the capacity and networks of le Rendez-vous de la fierté Acadie Love inc. in order to promote LGBTQ2 equality. The following activities will help achieve the objectives of the project: support management capacity through a strategic, operational and financial plan; build the capacity of the organization and its employees; strengthen collaboration between LGBTQ2 organizations in the region; increase the capacity of the LGBTQ2 sector and make francophone populations aware of the presence and issues of LGBTQ2 communities in minority Francophone communities.
Acadie love inc. will use the additional funds to pay for an employee’s salary and related costs and to hire consultants. The funds will also be used for research purposes, more specifically for the collection of data and statistics on the needs of Francophone LGBTQ2 organizations in New Brunswick.
At the end of the project, the organization will have developed a long-term sustainability plan and an internal governance to ensure continued development. The organization will have established a collaboration between community organizations and other partners in the sector with the objective of raising awareness and integrating the LGBTQ2 community in New Brunswick.
The supplemental funding for a second phase was granted to offset the salary of one employee and related costs and to hire one or more consultants. More specifically, the funds will be used for research, including the collection of data and statistics on the needs of Francophone LGBTQ2 organizations in New Brunswick. A second supplement was provided to develop its organizational management, promote LGBTQ2+ education, awareness and training, and support LGBTQ2+ and allied organizations.
