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.

Intelligent Electric Vehicle Charging Station Tester
999542
Electric Vehicle owners in Canada often discover that public charging stations are not functional, leaving them stranded and frustrated. The issue of reliability and downtime was flagged by CSA in its most recent report on charging infrastructure; it is negatively impacting public perception and acceptance of EVs and delaying the electrification of the automotive sector. In some recent cases, malfunctioning EV charging stations have even caused damage to the EV, requiring them to be towed and incurring thousands of dollars in repairs. This presents an unacceptable liability for EV station operators. Most charging stations are currently tested only at installation time by electricians. In this project, Tecium will develop a smart EV charger handheld tester giving information about the functionality of the charging station.
