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.

Youth Software Developer - Enclave Data Configurator

Agreement Number:

1034366

Duration: from Sep 1, 2025 to Mar 31, 2026
Description:

Data volume and complexity is increasing with the increased role of sustainability, and the impacts and multiplier effects of integrated home design. The objective of this six month assignment is to engage a youth developer as part of a broader team to implement an AI scraper that collects relevant data for building products, and convert them to structured data to be used for further more effective AI analysis.

The project will explore scraper technologies and available API's, propose a data structure, use AI to convert unstructured to structured data, create a working web interface and validate end-to-end flow. Data inputs could originate from integrated design, sustainability, innovations, trends, supply chain & buyer sentiments.
