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.

Shared Futures: Strengthening Manitoba-Indo-Pacific Partnerships through Research and Innovation
7474346 P016850001
The University of Manitoba (UM) proposes a strategic outbound mobility initiative to foster high-impact research collaborations in the Indo-Pacific region, leveraging Canada’s leadership in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and data transformation. Through two cycles of funding, the project will support 12 graduate scholarships and 6 researchers fellowships (each valued up to $25,000), enabling UM scholars to engage with regional partners for 2 to 8 months.

Combining isotopic and elemental abundances to unveil the formation and accretion history of a cold Jupiter
25JWGO4B04
This project will use JWST/NirCam imaging along with NIRSpec and MIRI spectroscopy to study the atmosphere and infer the formation history of the first mature cold Jupiter analog planet imaged around another star. These observations will combine the acquired orbital information with archival data to accurately determine the planet’s orbit, mass, and bulk density.

The Cold Worlds Spectral Library
25JWGO4B10
This project will use JWST/NIRSpec and MIRI to obtain high-precision spectra of 14 cold (250 – 500 K) brown dwarfs, creating the first comprehensive “cold world spectral library”. Combined with archival data, it will establish benchmark atmospheric properties – tracing clouds, chemistry, mixing, and auroral processes. This will help guide interpretation of upcoming JWST detections of cold, directly imaged exoplanets and advance comparative planetology across planets and brown dwarfs.

Innovative Ultra-high-performance Concrete Based Solutions for Upgrading Aging Infrastructures
1039329
Canada’s infrastructure is deteriorating and vulnerable to disasters. About 12.4% of Canadian Bridges (9,661 Bridges or Tunnels) are in poor/very poor condition, which require immediate rehabilitation or replacement. Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is an advanced class of concrete materials that show superior mechanical and durability performance. UHPC is an ideal material for prefabrication since it can reduce the self-weight of conventional concrete structures by over 50%, effectively making it easier to transport and assemble the prefabricated members. However, UHPC application is hindered by the high initial costs and the lack of understanding of environmental impacts of UHPC solutions. Therefore, this Project aims to develop low-cost, environmental-friendly UHPC bridge solutions that can be used to quickly replace existing aging infrastructure as well as conduct a life-cycle assessment to evaluate its environmental impacts and document the productivity benefits. The objective is to minimize the total costs and environmental impacts with enhanced productivity.
