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.

Genesis House Renovations: Washrooms, Laundry Room and flooring
800-74695
The project entails renovating and upgrading three (3) washrooms, the laundry room and flooring at the CRF. Most fixtures throughout all washrooms/stalls (including faucets, sinks, bathtubs, showers, and toilets). Grout and caulking are damaged and worn, tiles and flooring are loose, cracked and warped in places, and several areas of drywall are noticeably bubbled and water damaged. Mold and mildew are visible in many of the spaces, particularly on the ceiling in the laundry area and the tiles in the shower stalls, as well as the third-floor washroom walls and ceiling. While plumbing issues have been repaired over the years, evidence of the water damage remains. Even after cleaning, the odor and fungal growth quickly returns, or cannot be removed. Inadequate venting is also a contributing factor and would be addressed in the project. Finally, replace/repair the flooring in the foyer, and in the hallways and stairs throughout the house. The hardwood floors in the foyer are in desperate need of refinishing and the carpeting throughout the building is decrepit or missing. These areas of the CRF are in disrepair and require renovation to ensure the health and safety of the offenders that are residing at the CRF.
