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.

Open Door- Anti-human trafficking Pilot Project
HT20397
This 37-month project with Tungasuvvingat Inuit will develop and implement an anti-human trafficking bridge between Nunavut and Ontario to build knowledge and enhance empowerment supports for Inuit women and children who are relocating.
This will be achieved by hiring 1 FT AHT liaison, developing culturally specific anti-human trafficking education and awareness content, doing outreach to existing and new partners, as well as creating a low-barrier referral process to support community members as they navigate different areas based on their relocation plans.
At the end of the project, the organization will have addressed the gaps in support provided to Inuit women and children relocating to the south from Nunavut, ensuring that they are able to prevent and minimize their risk of being targeted by traffickers.
The project will include an external evaluation that will look at the success and scalability of the promising practices.

Embedding Resilience. Grounding Resistance: Centering Trafficking Survivors for Transformative Change
HT20408
This 37-month project with the Women’s Centre for Social Justice will develop and implement promising intervention practices to advance knowledge and enhance empowerment supports for at-risk populations of survivors of human trafficking in Ontario, Alberta, Yukon, British Columbia and Quebec.
This will be achieved by developing and delivering a survivor-led, “train-the trainer” training program for front-line workers, hotel staff, healthcare workers, law enforcement and members of the media, as well as the community at large; by shifting the public discourse around survivors to focus on their strengths, resilience, and resistance within the context of human trafficking; and by partnering with agencies and organizations that are well-known for cultivating research, advancing knowledge and advocating in the field of human trafficking to conduct participatory ground-breaking research within the Canadian context.
At the end of the project, the organization will have developed a Canada-wide membership program, designed by and for survivors of human trafficking, that focuses on community, collective healing, peer support, advocacy, training and awareness-raising activities and opportunities.
The project will include an external evaluation that will look at the success and scalability of the promising practices.
