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.

Building the Archives
2223-0133
The Frog Lake Library will work with local libraries and postsecondary institutions in order to build internal and community capacity to digitize and share knowledge from documentary, oral and embedded sources about Frog Lake First Nations’ (FLFNs) histories, so that the Nations’ continuing memory is documented, preserved, and available to the public for current and future generations. This project will lead to digitizing a collection of historical paper documents, which will be contextualized with knowledge from local Elders and then made available online for the purpose of increasing access to, and awareness of, FLFNs’ local documentary heritage.

The contribution supports the work of the Muskowekwan First Nation to honour the memories and legacy of generations of children, survivors and their families of all who attended the Muscowequan Residential School by repurposing the former colonial era school building and the site into a place of healing, memory, cultural learning and community development.
