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.

Agriculture Finance and Insurance System in Haiti
5007056671 P000172001
This project aims to increase food security by improving the profitability of Haiti's agriculture sector. It supports an agricultural credit financing and insurance system that encourages commercial and co-operative banks to lend to viable agricultural enterprises and help farmers manage risk and uncertainty. It also helps the Government of Haiti and Haitian financial institutions build the legislative and regulatory framework needed to manage a system of credit and insurance services for small and medium agricultural producers.
The project is implemented by a consortium led by Développement international Desjardins that includes the Financière agricole du Québec (Développement international) and the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture.
