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.

A silicon-based quantum sensor
1030670
Recent decades have witnessed phenomenal growth in the quantum technology sector, with breakthrough demonstrations in sensing, communication, and computing. In the past five years, silicon’s “T-center,” an atomic-scale defect, has emerged as a promising quantum hardware platform due to its telecom optical emission, compatibility with silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrates, and long-lived electronic and nuclear spins. Nevertheless, defects in SOI currently suffer from inefficient fabrication, poor spin and optical properties, and open questions regarding their coupling to material strain. In collaboration with the Quantum and Nanotechnologies Research Centre at NRC, the Project will overcome these challenges by 1) developing magnetic quantum sensing techniques and advanced fabrication protocols for high-quality T centers in SOI and 2) characterizing T-center strain coupling. The resulting techniques and materials will pave the way for transformative quantum devices and will contribute to the growing quantum industry and training of highly qualified scientists in Canada.
