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.

OECT Detection
1017667
Bio-Stream has developed a point of use detection platform called the trax platform. Two of the key components are the traxReader which is reusable, and trax sensors, which are single use consumables. The traxReader plugs into a users phone for reading the results (voltage's) changes from a traxSensor once the sample being tested is applied.
This project is about optimizing use of the OECT.

ID Verification
1017713
The project aims to enhance the company's security and customer trust by implementing digital ID verification ("IDV"), and launching an AI legal document creator via chatbot.
Digital ID verification will streamline customer onboarding, reducing fraud and ensuring only legitimate users access the company's services. This process involves verifying user identities through identity document checks and real-time authentication techniques.
These technical capabilities will lead to new revenue streams, in particular for clients such as banks who only need to verify the identity of their customers and do not necessarily require digital notary services.
Lastly, the digital IDV system is required to launch online notary services in the US market.
