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.

This project entitled ""Collision detection and content creation technologies for high fidelity grasping simulations"" will enhance the space robotics simulator used for astronaut training and mission planning for robotic operations on the International Space Station. The objectives are to increase simulation fidelity (accuracy, realism) and to save time by automating portions of the simulation creation process for future missions.

This project entitled ""A novel nano-filtration technology for aerospace applications"" is to design, build and test high-performance and durable nano-filters to be used in the aerospace industry. These nano-filters would serve in the filtration of fluid system protection in engine lube, engine fuel, coolant, radar cooling systems and odor/bacteria/virus removal from water and air. The proposed nano-filters are mass-producible, bio-compatible and can be assembled into any shape and size. The filters are suitable for harsh environments where high or low temperatures, high pressures or vacuum, high levels of radiation and wide range of pH define the quality of the surroundings. The proposed nano-filtration technology is a major improvement from existing filters. They are thinner, lighter, have an increased permeability and can be customized according to its applications.
