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.

Agreement Number:

Duration: from Nov 9, 2018 to Nov 8, 2019
Description:

This 12-month project will raise awareness with men and boys, alongside women and girls, towards action in eliminating gender-based violence. In partnership with women’s organizations, the CFL and Edmonton Junior Football, the organization will create meaningful participatory experiences at the week-long 2018 Grey Cup festival held in Edmonton, Alberta that draw attention to gender based violence, trafficking, sexual exploitation and their association with sporting events. These include a Breakfast with The Guys initiative, in which youth and sport role models are engaged in a discussion around domestic violence and their roles in addressing gendered violence; as well as train the trainer activities aimed at junior football players, allowing them to support the continuation of training to additional junior players throughout the year. ACWS will also partner with the Action Coalition on Human Trafficking Alberta to develop tools to assist those working in the hospitality industry to better understand and recognize potential trafficking and sexual exploitation; as well as work with the Edmonton Police Services to establish a baseline on the rates of violence against women associated with sporting events. An evaluation will measure the success of project activities to establish a framework to inform future work linking gender-based violence and sporting events.
