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.

Advanced Thermal Band Calibration and Processing for Small Satellite Missions
22STDPQ10
Thermal infrared images from satellites have applications that are increasingly important as the global climate changes, including detecting agricultural water use and crop health, environmental monitoring, and wildfire detection. Accurately imaging in these wavelengths is much more challenging than imaging visible light; the satellite and lens glow from blackbody radiation, causing errors in the product that must be carefully removed. Expensive large satellite missions accomplish this with complex calibration systems installed on the satellite. These satellites, due to construction expense, are few and coverage is not ideal for high-cadence monitoring. Multiple less expensive small satellites can achieve excellent coverage but cannot include significant on-board calibration because of mass and budget trade-offs.
This work will develop sophisticated on-ground processing for thermal images using advanced modeling, comparison to ground monitoring stations and other satellites. This cutting-edge technology will be offered as part of the EarthPipeline Software as a Service, providing a new generation of small satellite operators with a significantly higher quality flow of this critical data.

Support to Egypt for COVID-19 Screening
7447028 P012107001
This project aims to procure, deliver and install three CT scanners to three public hospitals in Egypt serving the lower to lower-middle income populations, which include the 1) Kafr El Zayat General Hospital (Lower Egypt); 2) Monofia General Hospital (Upper Egypt); and 3) Imbaba General Hospital (Greater Cairo). The project will also see the provision of will also of training to hospital staff on operating and maintaining the scanners. This project intends to provide health services to the over 20 million inhabitants, including poor and vulnerable women and men, living in the densely-populated and urban governorates of Gharbia, Monofiya & Giza.
