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.

Tk’emlúps te Secwepemc - CLC Stormwater Detention Facility
With the construction of a natural detention pond, which will receive runoff from Central and East CLC (Chief Louis Centre) lands, this project will help protect the South Thompson River against the common impacts of urbanization by improving runoff water quality and reducing peak flow rates to the river. It will also help to address existing bank erosion in the area and mitigate potential future erosion. In addition to its stormwater management aspects, the current concept has public use and interaction at its core, including perimeter trails, benches, and interpretive signage that will allow the community to interact with this new waterfront feature. It will also provide habitat for local wildlife.
