Disclosure of hospitality expenses

In accordance with the Government of Canada’s policy on the publication of travel and hospitality expenses for selected officials, this website provides information on the hospitality expenses incurred by senior staff and board members of the Canada Council for the Arts (Council).

The rules and principles governing hospitality expenses are outlined in the Council’s Hospitality Policy [PDF, 163.3 KB]. The purpose of this policy is to provide for the reimbursement of reasonable expenses necessarily incurred for Council business. The Council extends hospitality in an economical, consistent and appropriate way when it facilitates business or is considered desirable as a matter of courtesy and protocol.

The information on this website will be updated every month.

Proactive disclosure of travel and hospitality expenses are now available on https://open.canada.ca/en/proactive-disclosure
