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.

AI-powered Stormwater Management Platform - AI Assist
1028583
An AI-driven platform that provides instantaneous stormwater design specification options to accelerate developers, engineers, and city planners through system design, cost comparisons, and compliance requirements. The tool uses an AI powered interface, trained by PurePave's Engineering team to simplify project planning and permit applications while offering design / cost comparisons between traditional systems and PurePave's sustainable stormwater solutions. By addressing knowledge gaps and delivering precise and instant project designs, the platform not only expedites project timelines for users but also generates quality leads for service providers, ultimately driving the adoption of cost-saving, flood-mitigating PurePave solutions.
