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.

Engineering and Optimization of Affinity-Tagged Carbonic Anhydrase

Agreement Number:

1033377

Duration: from Aug 4, 2025 to Mar 30, 2026
Description:

This project focuses on engineering novel affinity-tagged variants of carbonic anhydrase to enable stable, high-performance immobilization for scalable carbon capture through accelerated weathering in seawater-based systems. These tags are designed to enhance catalytic efficiency, improve enzyme durability in high-ionic-strength conditions, and enable reversible binding for regeneration and reusability. The work will support biocatalyst integration into continuous flow reactors, yielding performance gains essential for pilot-to-commercial scale deployment in negative-emissions technologies.

Production Automation and Artwork Evaluation Systems

Agreement Number:

1033816

Duration: from Aug 4, 2025 to Jul 27, 2026
Description:

This project aims to automate and optimize art production to maximize the output of high-quality paintings. It focuses on developing evaluation systems that rank artwork at key stages and use these insights for continuous improvement. By analyzing data to identify and address factors limiting robotic painting quality, increasing throughput, and enabling fast, automated artwork assessment, to build a more efficient production process. This will make producing high-quality, scalable art faster, easier, and more cost-effective.
