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.

The Taproot Edmonton Calendar helps Edmontonians stay informed about events happening in and around the city. Our vision is to simplify discovery, making it easier for people to engage with everything our vibrant city has to offer. The Calendar launched in beta in December 2023, and now we are seeking support to improve its functionality and user experience, and to better understand and develop its monetization opportunities. A focus of the project is on implementing functionality for partners and potential customers, including event curation, and calendar distribution (feeds, embeds, etc.). This will support businesses and will grow our revenue, while reducing the fragmentation and lack of cohesion in the ecosystem.

This project will further the development and deployment of Harvest into production to support our existing customers and enable Taproot to scale to serve hundreds of new customers. For the intern, this will be an opportunity to work on real software that will be put into use serving real customers during their term.
