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.

D-AIRing to improve air travel for passengers living with dementia
998218
The air travel industry has historically designed service experiences to meet a typical passenger's needs. Yet the focus on a "typical person" is misguided and limiting as it does not accommodate the diversity of travelers whose needs are not being met. Recently, attention has turned to improve service accessibility and inclusivity to innovate by tailoring product offerings to a broader base of customers. However, making adjustments and accommodations requires rethinking the wide-varying needs and goals of persons with disabilities, especially for conditions that are not immediately noticeable, manifest in various ways or undiagnosed, are misunderstood or stigmatized, or lack advocacy or feelings of identification. Guided by the aims of the Accessible Canada Act, this research aims to eliminate barriers to air travel for persons with cognitive impairments or persons living with dementia. A case study of dementia is appropriate as age is the biggest risk factor for having this disease.
