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.

"Acoustic Eye" Sensor Project
939743
The advancement being sought is development of a modular unit that, through acoustic beamforming, advances safety by detecting people when they are around vehicles--such as a fire engine, for example--even in harsh conditions. The use of acoustics provides robustness against reduced visibility conditions. To be attractive as an add-on facility to vehicles, the sensor will be incorporated in a modified headlight unit that can be readily retro-fitted.

Intelligent module for powered wheelchair safety and skills training
939922
Powered mobility devices currently pose safety risks to both drivers and others in the environment, as well as cause significant property damage. The aim of the project is to develop an intelligent module that can prevent collisions by automatically intervening. This device will supplement our existing obstacle detection system. It will provide new training opportunities to those who are learning how to drive by providing an error-free learning environment. In addition, it will widen powered wheelchair access to those who are currently excluded due to visual, cognitive, and/or motor impairments. This technology will expand our overall market size, and increase competitive advantage for any wheelchair manufacturers that we partner with.

Development of AntidotPro A12-Bleach Mix
940499
The ANTIDOTPRO solution is added to existing hair dyes and bleaches currently sold in the market. When added in the recommended proportions to the hair dyes and bleaches, the combination of our proprietary ANTIDOTPRO solution and the dyeing agent has been shown to prevent discomfort associated with allergic reactions to the dyes and bleaches. The commercial goal is to develop our own powdered bleach product that already has the ANTIDOTPRO A-12 proprietary mix included in the bleach, that will be added to hydrogen peroxide to produce a bleaching cream, thus eliminating the mixing stage for the end user. Also, the firm must identify the mechanism of action of the proprietary A-12 mixture that gives this mix its antihistamine-like properties.
