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.

Technologies that can speedily and efficiently analyze large amounts of data in real-time are playing a critical role in helping healthcare professionals and governments predict the impact and spread of the Covid-19 virus over time. Enhanced data-sharing capabilities, particularly syndromic data between the population and health professionals, are also proving to be an indispensable tool for governments to confront the pandemic. Syndrome Anomaly Detection System (SADS) is an innovative platform that will help governments manage any health emergencies efficiently. SADS is an advanced real-time symptom collection and disease spreading analytics platform. SADS uses deep learning natural language processing (NLP) to capture a set of symptoms using conversations of patients from various sources including hospital triages, doctor’s offices, telehealth/pandemic hotlines, ambulances, online reporting systems, and social media. Other important information, such as age, gender, ethnicity, time, and location, are also anonymously collected from verbal and textual conversations. SADS then aggregates the syndromic and individual characteristics from these multiple sources and apply machine learning (ML) algorithms to classify and detect sudden increases in unusual syndromes in communities. SADS will immediately notify public health and government officials upon outbreak detection. Authorized parties can access both realtime and historical information in the analytics tools and further analysis of the data can be performed and shared with others. SADS will allow governments to manage disease outbreaks efficiently and in real-time. This platform will help governments save lives, reduce health care costs and hospitalizations.
