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.

Development of an OS to Support Multiple Camera Platforms
1016636
This project will allow the firm to identify the main technical and commercial gaps to the full integration of camera technology to predict terrain and use artificial intelligence to adapt the vehicle before reaching the predicted conditions. The project will examine the constraint of making its internal operating system compatible with many different cameras across many makes of vehicles, price ranges of cameras, etc. This will help the firm determine the best course of action to penetrate the market rapidly but safely in terms of customer/client satisfaction, IP protection and cost, among other factors.
