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.

Rehabilitation of the section of the Chemin de fer de la Gaspésie railway line- Port-Daniel-Gascons to Gaspé & Infrastructure development project to protect Highway 132 against coastal hazards
In May 2017, the Premier of Quebec announced the Chemin de fer de la Gaspésie railway rehabilitation project for resumption of passenger and freight rail transport over the entire 325 km of the network (the project will involve three sections). The rehabilitation of the Chemin de fer de la Gaspésie is important for the socioeconomic development of the region. Large corporations, including one based in Gaspé, use the train to ship freight from New Richmond. Restoring rail transport as far as Gaspé will promote and stimulate economic growth in the Gaspé region. In order to improve the resilience to climate change of Highway 132, a vital transportation corridor for both goods and people in the Gaspé region, an infrastructure program is under development. This program involves the construction and refurbishment of coastal protection infrastructures, shoreline stabilization and the relocation of segments of the highway in order to preserve the integrity of the infrastructures.

The Development of a Canadian Methodology for a Jurisdiction-Wide Infrastructure Assessment
The overall objective of this research project is to develop a Canadian methodology for a jurisdiction-wide infrastructure assessment, including a performant measurement framework, that will be publicly accessible to all Canadians.
The methodology will assist jurisdictions in defining the scope and approach of an infrastructure assessment and provide insights into relevant resources, including the existing evidence base, macro-fiscal projections, key experts, and potential stakeholders as well as options for how jurisdictions could develop an approach and evidence base tailored to their circumstances.
