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.

Test Engineer
1024394
Wind Enairgy Inc. is developing a Dual-Axis Cascaded Airfoil Wind Turbine (DACAWT) prototype, based on its US patent (10,683,841 B2). Extensive computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analyses, including independent CFD simulations by Rand Simulation and Navier-Flow Consultants, indicate a DACAWT exhibits excellent aerodynamic performance in low wind speed and gusting wind conditions. The project will redesign, build and wind tunnel test a robust DACAWT prototype to validate the proof of concept and generate accurate data with respect to its optimum blade speed ratio (BSR) and maximum power coefficient. The prototype's test data will be used for designing and building a larger DACAWT for testing in the field and to attract private investment.

Cochu Chocolatier Enterprise-Wide Integrated AI Operations Platform (EIAIO) Part 1: Foundation
1024496
We hope to develop an Enterprise-Wide Integrated platform (EIAIO) that uses ML/AI to streamline and direct interdepartmental, end-to-end operations for small food manufacturing businesses by evaluating, planning, tracking, predicting and guiding decision-making in all aspects of the business. EIAIO Part 1 (this project) will cover a portion of Phase 1 of our 3-Phase AI Integration & Growth Plan. It will utilize 6 years of data to begin designing and building a functional database, which will become the foundation of our larger EIAIO platform. This project will cover the initial groundwork of further data collection & clean-up for validation & testing, requirements definition, compliance preparation, and defining business rules & standards.
