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.

Efficient operator-guided cobot programming and scene recognition for
welding applications
1015787
In manufacturing projects that require a high degree of adaptability such as
shipbuilding or energy, robots often fail to provide utility to the welder as
they require significant time to program, are often stationary, and for safety
must be isolated from nearby workers. To address these issues, this Project
will introduce cobots to the large-scale welding job workflow through the
adoption of vision systems combined with machine learning to identify the
potential weld seams and adapt programming accordingly, providing a
simple interface for the welding operator to assign tasks to the cobot.
