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.

Characterizing the composistion and regolith properties at Reiner Gamma from the orbit to the ground
24EXPROSS2
The Lunar Vertex payload will be delivered to the Moon to study the Reiner Gamma lunar swirl, a bright, unusual marking, collocated with a magnetic anomaly, both of unknown origin. Our main objective is to characterize the composition and regolith properties at the Reiner Gamma swirl from the orbit to the ground, to better constrain its origin. The team will use the orbital remote sensing images and images acquired by a microscope on the rover to characterize the composition and texture of the regolith before and during the Lunar Vertex mission, as the rover drives across the swirl.
