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.

ForYou: A game About Artificial Intelligence and Privacy Project
ForYou: A Game About Artificial Intelligence and Privacy will equip young people to consider and discuss the role of machine learning and recommendation algorithms in their lives and the impacts that these have on their privacy, in a way that is concrete and engaging.
The project places youth in the role of video creators who are attempting to gain a following and monetize their videos on a platform such as YouTube or TikTok.
This educational resource will give youth an opportunity to: 1) reflect on the ways in which they interact with AI in their day-to-day lives; 2) learn more about how AI and algorithms work; 3) understand the implications of AI and algorithms on their privacy, and; 4) learn how to take action to advocate for and design algorithms that are equitable and practice good stewardship of personally identifying information
