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.

Food security and sustainable fishery development: Seasonal and spatial variations in hunting and fishing in Gjoa Haven, Nunavut
PKA-1718-0002
The objective of the harvest study is to gain insights regarding how hunters currently use the land, what species are harvested in different locations throughout the year, what the returns of hunting and fishing effort are, how hunting and fishing activities are linked, and what financial costs and constraints subsistence harvesters face. This study will provide a baseline status for harvest levels, value of local fisheries (such as Arctic char, white fish and lake trout), and increase understanding of the local economy, food security, and access to country food in Gjoa Haven.
