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.

Le Programme de préparation à l’investissement (PPI) a été mis au point pour aider à faire progresser l’innovation sociale / finance sociale (IS/FS) au Canada et à s’appuyer sur des soutiens existants pour aider à catalyser des solutions dirigées par les collectivités pour faire face aux défis persistants. Le PPI fournira des investissements limités dans le temps qui aideront le plus grand nombre d’OVS que possible à améliorer leur capacité à participer dans le marché de la finance sociale, à accéder de nouvelles opportunités d’investissement, à progresser dans le continuum de préparation à l’investissement et à combler les lacunes de l’écosystème d’IS/FS.
