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.

Improving accessibility to archives and optimizing archive management
2324-0014
The Canadian Railroad Historical Association (CRHA) Archives and Documentation Centre wishes to improve accessibility to its archives, while optimizing its archive management. To this end, a targeted analysis was conducted in 2021. Four commercially available systems, including the one currently used by the Centre, were evaluated in depth based on the needs of the organization and its clients. The results of this analysis led to the selection of AtoM software. The current project consists of installing the AtoM software in the Centre’s infrastructure and configuring it based on the internal classification plan. Then, the descriptive, bibliographic and image records contained in ArchiLog—the software currently used at the Centre—will be migrated, and a quality validation and adjustments will take place as needed.
