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.

Port Stanley Storm Water Management, Shoreline and Harbour Protection
This project will protect the Village of Port Stanley from storm surges from Erie Lake through four assets: by enhancing a dune protection system; by building a new harbour entrance breakwater; by raising the crest of an existing dyke; and by upgrading the storm water management of the community. Once complete, the project will mitigate the impacts of future storm surges related to climate change.

Enabling Accurate Landing for CubeSat Re-Entry and Satellite Reusability
22STDPR05
This project will support the development of CubeSat re-entry technology to increase Canadian industrial capabilities of space technology, democratize the return of materials from space, and support the reusability of the satellite technology. The purpose of this project is to assess the effects of temperature in the re-entry process and determine the required form factor for CubeSats to safely return to earth.

Development of next-generation antireflection nanotexturing on alternative space glass
22STDPR07
Edgehog has previously demonstrated the superior light transmission of its nanotextured anti-reflection process on this industry-standard glass, showing an impressive 1% absolute gain in energy conversion efficiency. This project seeks to recreate such structures on an alternative space glass, 0214-glass, to alleviate the reliance of an entire industry on one glass supplier.

Complementary Metal-oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) Controller for Counting Photons
22STDPR17
To date, its controllers support Charge Coupled Devices (CCDs), EMCCDs and with the help from this project, will also be able to support CMOS detectors.
There are many complex challenges to properly supporting ultra-sensitive detectors, but Nüvü Caméras stands out for its unique ability to support demanding low-flux applications—both on Earth and in space. With this project, Canada will secure its leadership position for years to come by expanding its capacity to support yet another form of innovative imaging technology in line with its recognized expertise in photon-counting imaging.
