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.

The Vancouver Holocaust Education Centre’s Increasing Access to Holocaust Symposia and Events Project
1920-0888
The Vancouver Holocaust Education Centre (VHEC) will facilitate access to archival holdings related to a 35-year history of organizing public events and educational symposia related to its mandate and to Holocaust commemoration. The VHEC has a mandate to collect, preserve and make accessible documentary heritage that supports the organization in its efforts to promote social justice, human rights and genocide awareness. The VHEC will process records related to its annual educational symposium, International Holocaust Remembrance Day, Yom HaShoah and Kristallnacht anniversary events, and the High Holidays cemetery service. These records include research and curatorial files, audio-video recordings, multi-media content, design files, plans, photographs, correspondence, and finance-related files. Specifically, the organization will arrange, describe and create a finding aid for event records, and then publish them online to make them accessible and searchable for educators, students, community members and researchers.
