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.

Trapping of Invasive Wild Boar (Eurasian Wild Hog) in Elk Island National Park and Area
GC-1627
This contribution supports Alberta Pork to eradicate or control the Invasive Wild Boar (Eurasian Wild Hog) in Elk Island National Park and Area. Over the last two years, wild boars have become prevalent in Elk Island National Park. Sighting are increasing and evidence of habitat destruction in the Park is becoming obvious. A breeding population is thought to have now established. Under the current trend of increasing sighting and presence, EINP anticipates that this will become a long term problem. Wild boar (Eurasian Wild Hog) are not native to Alberta and, as an invasive pest, damage the environment.
