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.

Bifurcated Digital Credentials
1037183
Vaultie is developing a Bifurcated Credential which is a digital verifiable credential that can be verified by any party but a subset of the information can only be verified by specific parties. This allow for instances where an issuer can issue credentials with gated information that could be verified at each specific gate, for example, a health card which may need to verified for its authenticity by a medical clerk, but may need specific information for perhaps a doctor or pharmacist. This type of double use verification has many use cases that can be further explored and can foster faster adoption and interoperability of credentials by enabling combined economic models.
This differs from a Zero Knowledge Proof as a Bifurcated Credential
