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.

The purpose of this initiative is to develop 10 original hands-on, tangible and tool-rich workshops that will allow students who are blind or have visual deficiencies to learn about space. This initiative is undertaken in response to a glaring need since resources of this nature are currently nonexistent in Canada and extremely limited worldwide.

This is a bridging program between the secondary and postsecondary levels of education. The main objectives of this initiative are to increase interest, knowledge and skills in space engineering (with a focus on nanosatellites) among secondary level students through the development and delivery of hands-on activities related to satellite engineering.
The initiative targets 10-16 year old Canadian students who will participate in hands-on workshops that will focus on concepts such as satellite mass properties, nanosatellite antenna design, on-board computer development, software design and microrover design. Graduate students will host the workshops and teach participants about the fundamental principles of space engineering and apply physics and engineering skills in order to derive potential solutions.
