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 Stronger Communities by Building on the Past: Sharing the Histories of Toronto’s Grassroots Community Groups
1920-0937
The Connexions Archive & Library will expand upon on an existing virtual exhibit funded by DHCP in 2016. In the current project, the organization will digitize and catalogue a large number of documents that broaden the scope of the project to include the geographical areas beyond Toronto’s “Ward 7”, such as Kensington, Parkdale and the Junction. In addition, the project will extend the time period (initially 1970 – 1985) to look further back and forward to the 1990s. This virtual exhibit highlights connections between the materials and images digitized, and the stories they tell about gentrification, urban development, homelessness, access to health care, local organizing and activism.
