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.

Youth hire - Turquoise Hydrogen
1006257
As part of the development of 'Thermo-mechanical pyrolysis' of methane, Turquoise Hydrogen (TH) is currently conducting 'proof of concept research' at University of Saskatchewan (UofS) in Chemical & Biological Engineering department. The research is conducted by Dr. Biswajit Saha, a MITACS funded postdoc under the supervision of Dr. A Dalai. While assessing the effectiveness of mechanical scraping of catalytic surface for catalyst regeneration, it is identified that development of a suitable catalyst formulation which favors value-added carbon products would be immensely valuable for the project. Hence, TH would like to hire a fresh graduate to work with the research group at UofS in the development of an optimum catalyst formulation.
