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.

These stories have walked a long way"—Repatriation of Touchwood Agency Tribal Council Oral Traditions
LHOV-02-049
Walter Poorman is one of 14 Elders interviewed by an Indigenous oral history project which in 1971-72 recorded over 60 hours in the Cree and Saulteaux languages from Elders from Touchwood Agency Tribal Council (Treaty Four) in central Saskatchewan. The interviews relate Cree and Saulteaux oral traditions, ceremonies, songs, and community histories passed down since in middle of the 19th century and earlier. These recordings are an invaluable resource for our efforts to reinvigorate knowledge of Indigenous cultures, histories, and languages. TATC seeks funding from Listen Hear Our Voices to repatriate the original recordings from the Provincial Archives of Alberta to TATC to support community efforts to renew cultural awareness and Indigenous languages in the younger generation.
