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.

Prosperity through innovation: Métis Women in Manitoba
AN17163
This 36-month project will address barriers to economic security faced by Métis mothers and caregivers as they attempt to enter, re-enter or remain in the workforce. Through the development and pilot implementation of individual “pathways to prosperity plans,” Métis women in Manitoba will benefit from increased accessibility and coordination of relevant programs and services, such as childcare. In addition, a network of stakeholders, employers and Métis women in business will participate through targeted outreach for job-matching, and learning and skills-building sessions with participating women. Insights generated through the project will inform the creation of Métis-specific childcare programming, and will be shared to shape employer human resource and institutional policies where possible.
