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 Impact Project
WP230473
This 33-month systemic change project will help increase women’s representation in leadership roles in corporate Canada, with a focus on growing the share of women from underrepresented groups in those positions. The project will share evidence-based and community-informed actionable measures for corporation in two major industries to implement so that they can address the following barriers: hiring and promotion bias, recruitment of women (especially women with intersecting identities), and inequitable compensation. Additionally, the project will work with the federal government to develop incentives to encourage companies beyond the federally regulated sectors to also disclose their gender-disaggregated data. Finally, the project will deliver a public awareness campaign that seeks to increase positive sentiment held by Canadians for the advancement of women in the workplace and a recognition that when women succeed, all Canadians benefit. An external evaluator will measure and assess the impact of the systemic change project.
