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.

NNBY Archival Audio Recordings Inventory Project (ARIP)
1920-0901
This project will document audio recordings belonging to the Northern Native Broadcasting, Yukon (NNBY) archives. This component includes archival recordings of Yukon First Nations people, events and communities: including Elders, Indigenous language speakers, culture bearers and leaders, key events (such as land claim negotiations and agreements), traditional and evolving cultural practices, residential schools and their impact, and other historic and community events. A preliminary catalogue of NNBY TV broadcast recordings offers some accessibility to the videos; however, there is no listing for audio recordings. The project will establish an inventory of NNBY audio recordings from CHON-FM radio programs, oral histories and recordings made for or donated to NNBY, circa 1970 to 2000. Project objectives include the development of a database with key metadata for NNBT audio recordings and a preservation plan to safeguard these recordings for future generations.
