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.

Venezuela Crisis - Emergency Response - Pan American Health Organization 2020
7420070 P008924001
February 2020 - The crisis in Venezuela has resulted in severe food and fuel shortages, record hyperinflation and the collapse of the health system, putting both food and medicine out of reach for many citizens and heavily impacting people’s ability to meet basic needs. Over 4.8 million people have fled Venezuela since 2015, many of whom are currently residing in neighbouring countries such as Colombia, Ecuador and Peru. As the situation continues to deteriorate in Venezuela, vulnerable and crisis-affected populations are in need of critical assistance, including basic health assistance, food security, and water, sanitation and hygiene.
With GAC’s support, the Pan American Health Organization is helping provide life-saving assistance to vulnerable populations affected by the Venezuela crisis. Project activities include: (1) providing basic health services, including vaccination, prenatal and postnatal care to vulnerable and at-risk people; (2) distributing essential medications and medical supplies to health facilities; and (3) providing nutritional support to vulnerable and at-risk people.
