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.

Dyke Rehabilitation

Duration: from Mar 2, 2026 to Mar 31, 2033
Description:

The project involves raising and reconstructing the southern dyke of the Hillman Marshland for a 1 in 100 year peak water level to avoid flooding of southern Leamington and the Caldwell First Nations. The Caldwell First Nation will work with Essex Region Conservation Authority and the Municipality of Leamington. The project will also add armor stone to the northern face of the Hillman Marshland to lessen the impacts of tidal forces against the dyke. Clay will also be added to strengthen the dyke’s ability to withstand tidal forces. As muskrats have dug holes into the dyke, the muskrats will be relocated and the holes will be filled. By rehabilitating the dyke, Caldwell First Nation lands as well as residential and agricultural lands along the southern Point Peele peninsula will be protected.
