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.

Cobourg Shoreline Protection Repair

Duration: from Jan 14, 2025 to Mar 31, 2033
Description:

This project is for the Cobourg Harbour breakwaters and the Monk's Cove Park Seawall. Both structures have been eroded considerably, threatening to erode the shoreline. The primary objective of this project is the protection of the Town of Cobourg shoreline to maintain the natural environment along the shores of Cobourg and to ensure that members of the public can still enjoy the Town's natural features. Rehabilitating the shoreline protection assets in these two locations will also incorporate new designs to provide greater protection against rising water levels on Lake Ontario. This will provide greater resiliency against shoreline erosion, storm surges, and flooding.
