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.

Crowsnest Trail Pathway Project in Lethbridge, Alberta
The Crowsnest Trail Pathway Project will provide an active transportation connection between the City of Lethbridge’s regional pathway network and the WT Hill Business Park, a major commercial and employment area located in east Lethbridge, on the outskirts of the city. Although the regional pathway network connects most areas of the city, there are still a number of significant areas, such as the WT Hill Business Park, where gaps in the network exist. Building upon the City of Lethbridge Cycling Master Plan (2017), this project will provide a much-needed, two-kilometer connection for pedestrians, cyclists, and wheelchair users.
