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.

Emergency Disaster Assistance Fund - Canadian Red Cross 2018-2023
7395889 P006382001
The Emergency Disaster Assistance Fund project supports a draw-down fund, administered by the Canadian Red Cross, which allows Canada to rapidly respond to International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) emergency operations following small- and medium-scale humanitarian crises. The draw-down fund is a flexible funding mechanism that supports a timely and effective humanitarian response to those affected by natural disasters or complex emergencies, including conflict, population movement, food insecurity, and health crises.
This project also supports the IFRC’s pilot Forecast-Based Action Mechanism. Triggered by forecasts such as weather patterns or precipitation levels, the mechanism disburses funding to local Red Cross and Red Crescent national societies to take early action and put in place preparedness measures in the early stages of a disaster, to reduce the impact on local populations.
