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.

End of Arm Compliance Mechanism (ECM)
22STDPQ25
An objective of humanity’s return to the Moon is to establish a sustained human presence. Mobility platforms equipped with capable robotic arms enables the creation of essential infrastructure and expands the tasks, capabilities, and science that astronauts can perform.
Mass and cost are key drivers for systems that will operate on the Moon. This Space Technology Develop Program (STDP) funded project will develop a novel End of Arm Compliance Mechanism (ECM) that will allow a robotic arm to perform first of a kind payload handling and installation operations equivalent to that of a 6 joint arm with only 4 joints. This results in a best in class product that is less complex, lighter, less expensive, more compact, and has a larger handling capacity than existing planetary arms. This program includes the mechanical design, development, assembly and test of an Engineering Model in a relevant environment (e.g. regolith, TVAC), advancing the technology readiness level (TRL) from 4 to 6 over 14 months.
This proposed development will enable a commercially competitive robotic system that will position Canada to have a strong role in the emerging lunar economy.

Towards Autonomous Capabilities for Orbital Servicing
22STDPS10
The global space economy is growing rapidly, fueled largely by the proliferation of satellites in Earth orbit. Rather than continually launching new satellites, it is now technologically possible to perform satellite servicing, increasing satellite lifetimes, particularly for high-value satellites further away from Earth. Mission Control proposes to develop key autonomy algorithms and a mission operations software system that will advance the state-of-the-art in onboard autonomy for Rendezvous, Proximity Operations and Docking, to be made commercially available for future satellite servicing operators. These technologies will be developed by upgrading our Orbital Autonomy Lab to a high visual fidelity hardware-in-the-loop facility. The advancement of autonomy algorithms, operations software, and simulation/validation infrastructure will advance Canada’s leadership in space robotics and autonomous satellite servicing, opening new capabilities for satellites to support our livelihood and economy on and off Earth.
