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.

Empowering Me'tis Women in Leadership (Phase II)

Agreement Number:

WP240260

Duration: from Mar 1, 2025 to Mar 31, 2029
Description:

Through this 49-month project, Les Femmes Michif Otipemisiwak (LFMO) will contribute to the empowerment of Métis women by creating leadership resources and fostering networks necessary to enhance their leadership capabilities.

The development of the Empowering Métis Women in Leadership Curriculum and resources, will address topics through an approach centered on the Métis Holistic Lifelong Learning Model that can begin the process of decolonizing leadership by exploring strengths and weaknesses, including how colonial education systems continue to influence individuals, families, and communities inside and outside of school or formalized learning environments. The development process will include engagement and consultation with subject matter experts, Traditional Knowledge holders and Métis women and gender-diverse folks to continually inform project outputs.

Once developed, the curriculum and resources will first be piloted and then implemented nationally, available for all Métis women and gender-diverse people. Through this work, LFMO will begin to set the stage for systemic change in which Métis women and gender-diverse people will experience equity and equality in leadership roles.
