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.

Shift Change for Equity and Inclusion
NS21874
This 30-month project will support a feminist response and recovery from the current impacts of COVID-19, through systemic change. The YWCA Halifax will achieve this by scaling-up a past Gender Inclusive Leadership course and by piloting new initiatives that promote the participation of diverse and underrepresented women in skilled trades in Nova Scotia.
At the end of the project, the organization will have contributed to addressing systemic barriers by advancing inclusive practices, increasing networks and collaboration to accelerate systemic change, supporting positive distribution of voices, and addressing persistent harmful gender norms and attitudes to support women’s equality.
This project will bring together sector and system partners, such as private sector employers, industry associations, unions, the Nova Scotia Apprenticeship Agency and the Office to Advance Women Apprentices to foster the economic security and prosperity of diverse women in skilled trades.
