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.

Inuvialuit Place Names Project
PKA-2122-0029
The Inuvialuit Place Names Project collects, verifies, and circulates a remarkable collection of archival Inuvialuit place names, drawn from research reports, audio recordings, maps, and other sources recorded over the last 40 years. The primary goal of this project is the establishment of a linguistically robust, authoritative, and community-controlled source of Inuvialuit place names for use by Inuvialuit Regional Corporation agencies tasked with conducting land-use planning and impact assessment reviews, as well as Inuvialuit community members seeking a greater understanding of and connection with the Inuvialuit Settlement Region (ISR). The finalized place name records will be disseminated through a variety of mediums and this consolidated place name resource will then be used to highlight areas which would benefit from a supplementary round of place name documentation studies carried out in the third year of the project.

The VGFN will study predator impacts on country food sources, through the combination of traditional and genomic identification methods, across Vuntut lands. Indigenous Land Guardians will work with scientific partners to collect non-invasive samples to assess wolf density, behaviour, diet and health, in order to facilitate local adaptations to shifts in country food availability.

Permafrost, thermokarst, and vegetation dynamics: mapping the availability of terrestrial lichen and other forage plants
NST-2122-0042
Rapid permafrost thaw events can dramatically change vegetation of a landscape, in particular fire-driven changes, reducing lichen availability to caribou. This study will assess how and where permafrost degradation will most affect caribou in the NWT, using field measurements in-line with remote sensing techniques. Modelling will aid in the prediction of forage vegetation supply.
