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.

Development of a lightweight rocket nozzle
20STDPN03
(20STDPN03) A backlog of small satellites awaiting launch currently exists and forces long wait times before satellite operators can launch their product. SpaceRyde aims to address this issue by providing low-cost on-demand launch services with a balloon/rocket launch system. The rocket is launched from a stratospheric balloon at the edge of the atmosphere. In the absence of dense atmospheric layers, the rocket operates at its peak efficiency, making small satellite launches cost-efficient.
This project includes the development of an extremely light nozzle for SpaceRyde's rocket, and is a major step towards achieving SpaceRyde's goal of developing the most-efficient system for launching small satellites to Low Earth Orbit. SpaceRyde's launch system, once developed, will forward the interest of Canadians, permitting the construction of satellite constellations for providing internet service to remote locations, monitoring climate change, and forwarding scientific advancements. Additionally, it will spark the growth of space industry in Canada by creating the first Canadian space launch service.
