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.

Agreement:

AI-powered Stormwater Management Platform - AI Assist

Agreement Number:

1028583

Duration: from Mar 1, 2025 to Sep 30, 2025
Description:

An AI-driven platform that provides instantaneous stormwater design specification options to accelerate developers, engineers, and city planners through system design, cost comparisons, and compliance requirements. The tool uses an AI powered interface, trained by PurePave's Engineering team to simplify project planning and permit applications while offering design / cost comparisons between traditional systems and PurePave's sustainable stormwater solutions. By addressing knowledge gaps and delivering precise and instant project designs, the platform not only expedites project timelines for users but also generates quality leads for service providers, ultimately driving the adoption of cost-saving, flood-mitigating PurePave solutions.

LVC - 3rd Generation Quantum Computer with 2 Logical Qubits

Agreement Number:

1028810

Duration: from Feb 17, 2025 to Aug 30, 2027
Description:

Achieving fault-tolerance through brute-force error correction schemes is expected to require a superconducting quantum processor with millions of physical qubits. While recent experiments have successfully demonstrated the feasibility of error-correction in principle, the hardware overhead seems prohibitive for a commercially relevant machine. In this project, the firm will introduce an alternative pathway to achieve fault-tolerance with superconducting qubits that has the potential to significantly reduce the error-correction overhead.
