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.

Time for 5
NA190156
The Project Time for 5 will be addressing gender-based violence (GBV) and women’s economic security, which is aligned with the Recipient’s work and experiences in seeking gender equity for all women in Canada. The focus of this project will specifically be on GBV, economic security and emerging issues in rural, remote and northern communities (using WAGE’s contribution to the Project), along with advancing gender equality for girls and women throughout Canada (using other sources of funding). In addition to providing direct contribution funding, the project will also provide capacity building supports for community-based organizations and grassroots initiatives within these communities.
Supplemental funding for the project will enable an expanded reach of the project to distribute additional funding to eligible organizations and to further support project activities.
