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.

Kayas Achanohkewina: Legends of Long Ago
LHOV-02-033
The project will digitize the contents of tapes produced in 2001 as part of the University College of the North (UCN) course Kayas Achanohkewina: Legends of Long Ago, led by Dr. Peter Geller, who stated:
“The course delivery will include having several storytellers and/or elders participate in the course, both in the classroom and through doing the interviews with students. The interviews will be recorded, and with the participants’ consent we would like to have copies of the tapes kept in northern Manitoba.”
The UCN Library is in possession of the output of these storytelling sessions and interviews, along with related project documentation.
This initiative seeks to preserve the original materials while making the digitized versions available to researchers and the public through UCN Libraries' streaming platform.
