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.

An AI-enabled testbed for satellite mega-constellations: From simulator to networks innovator accelerator
1000744
In addition, the lack of access to realistic experimentation platforms limits the development, testing, and evaluation of innovative solutions. Therefore, this project proposes the development of a testbed to evaluate and demonstrate novel routing and transport schemes specifically designed for satellite mega-constellations.

Nanoscale sensing of molecular processes in structured light
1003598
Functionalized nanosystems with materials, such as molecules or quantum dots, adsorbed to their surfaces, may open new possibilities for various applications. In the Project the team will develop nanoscale sensing of molecular processes in structured light. The aim of the project is to gain deeper insight into the fundamental mechanisms of molecular chemistry on the surface of free nanoparticles.

Nuji Kelo’toqatijik Earth Keeper Network
GC-1961,1
This contribution supports the Confederacy of Mainland Mi’kmaq (Nuji Kelo’toqatijik Earth Keeper Network) that will develop and implement on-the-ground management actions by trained Earth Keepers such as monitoring, information sharing and storytelling. This program will apply Etuaptmumk (Two-Eyed Seeing) approach to all work carried out.
