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.

Integration of GPS antenna
1005009
Integration of GPS antenna in devices with high EMI producing AI chips and cameras:
Foresight Insurance Analytics Inc has developed its own proprietary video-telematics technology for use in loss control for high risk commercial auto insurance market. The product is in use with multiple fleet customers.
High density AI chips in edge devices produce enormous amounts of EMI, which when packaged in a small device, can interfere with other radio-based sensors such as GPS sensors. This project focuses on solving the technical challenges necessary in developing and designing EMI limiting technologies to allow for high density AI compute to co-exist with a fully integrated GPS sensor and antenna in a 5in x 3in x 2in device.

Development of Equipment and Process for Compostable Menstrual Pads
1005062
Aruna’s goal is revolutionizing menstrual products, making them better for the body and the planet. To do that we will develop a local micro-manufacturing facility in Nova Scotia, that will encompass fiber extraction, non-woven development, and pad conversion. This project will allow Aruna to move from small lab scale equipment, into a pilot scale – where we can research, develop and test larger scale technology and demonstrate the feasibility of local micro-manufacturing of compostable menstrual products.
