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.

Think Women: Peer Network for a Feminist Economy
NA21845
This 29-month project will support a feminist response and recovery from the current impacts of COVID-19, through systemic change. Women’s Economic Council will achieve this by supporting the inclusion of women’s voices, particularly low-income women, women with disabilities, BIPOC, LGBTQ2+ and other marginalized and underrepresented groups in the planning for the economic recovery through local collaboration and in-person leadership.
At the end of the project, the organization will have contributed to addressing systemic barriers by advancing inclusive policies and practices, encouraging more equitable and effective sharing of resources, increasing networks and collaboration to accelerate systemic change, and supporting positive distribution of authority, voices, and decision-making power to support women’s equality.

PRUDE’s REAL Women Program
NB21581
This 29-month project will support a feminist response and recovery from the current impacts of COVID-19, through systemic change. PRUDE INC. (Pride of Race, Unity & Dignity through Education) will achieve this by establishing a steering committee, promoting the project and recruiting interviewees, gathering stories about systemic barriers for visible minorities/BIPOC women, developing recommendations in partnership with municipalities and implementing recommendations.
At the end of the project, the organization will have contributed to addressing systemic barriers by advancing inclusive policies and practices, increasing networks and collaboration to accelerate systemic change and addressing persistent harmful gender norms and attitudes to support women’s equality.
The experience and knowledge of visible minorities/BIPOC women and girls will be utilized to identify challenges, inequalities and systemic barriers this population faces which were exacerbated during the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on these findings, the Steering Committee will disseminate an action plan and formulate recommendations to advance social and economic prosperity of racialized women and girls in the greater Saint John area.
