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.

Raising Awareness While Building Bridges For Marginalized Communities
AB21036
This 19-month project will support a feminist response and recovery from the current impacts of COVID-19, through systemic change. ANSWERS will achieve this by hosting Town Hall sessions to complete a participatory needs assessment, offering workshops and networking sessions for sex workers to help establish and maintain support systems, organizing a multi-day Assembly to bring together sex workers and various stakeholders (police, legal representatives, health practitioners, etc.) to share their personal knowledge and lived experiences, and developing an educational resource about the sex work industry in Canada to inform policies and programs.
At the end of the project, the organization will have contributed to addressing systemic change by increasing networks and collaboration; increasing the support systems and resources available to sex workers to assist them in ending violence against them; supporting positive distribution of authority, voices, and decision-making power; and reducing stigma that creates barriers for accessing supports and services for women and those who often face multiple marginalization factors.
The project will engage women and those with lived experience in each component of the project. Key project partners include the City of Edmonton and HIV Edmonton.
