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.

PPN OTT Advanced Engine Build
997496
The Public Place Network (PPN) is an infrastructure vendor that gives customers the ability to create and manage their own Over The Top (OTT, See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Over-the-topmediaservice) media service.
The existing PPN prototype provides creators with tools such as custom site hosting, video streaming, advertising, subscriptions, payment processing, etc., providing an easily customizable interface where customers can build an OTT service specific to their business needs and consumer engagement.
The project goals are:
● To simplify the entire OTT media sector experience of data storage, hosting, serving, streaming, viewing, etc. by providing a single service where content creators do not need to concern themselves with the infrastructure
● To create a next generation, technologically disruptive OTT platform that will replace the existing prototype platform.
