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.

AI research project for EM analysis for wire breaks detection in concrete pipe

Agreement Number:

1029897

Duration: from Jun 1, 2025 to Jan 11, 2026
Description:

This project aims to develop a novel in-service concrete pipe wire break detection AI system that features an advanced deep learning models and an intuitive Graphical User Interface. This project is poised to deliver significant social and economic benefits by fundamentally transforming electromagnetic (EM) analysis solutions, improving accuracy and operational efficiency for wire break detection in concrete pipe. The innovative AI system allows engineers to rapidly detect wire breaks in critical concrete water mains, offering a cost-effective and scalable solution crucial for building market trust and fostering the adoption of advanced diagnostic technologies.

Agreement:

Laue FFNN Prototype

Agreement Number:

1029958

Duration: from Jun 1, 2025 to Jan 8, 2026
Description:

The goal of this project is to develop a fully-automated product for use in the quality inspection of turbine blades using the X-ray Laue technique. For some time, the missing link in bringing such a product to market has been the intervention of an operator when determining the orientations of the grain(s) being imaged. This project would build upon proof-of-concept examples in the literature, whereby a feed-forward neural network is trained to extract the orientations of one or more crystal grains from a synchrotron Laue image, and apply this approach to the analysis of laboratory Laue images (which are qualitatively lower-resolution).
