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.

Engineering the next generation of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) via thermal spraying
992276
The potential outcomes of this research project include new generation of thermally sprayed bond coats and suspension plasma sprayed (SPS) top coats with improved CMAS resistance and a comprehensive computer model to predict coating microstructure, roughness, porosity etc. These new TBC coatings will lead to production of more durable components and more energy?efficient engines, lowering the maintenance costs and increasing flight safety.

The Inuit Nunangat search and rescue (INSAR) project: supporting Inuit health and well-being, food security, economic development, and community resilience by strengthening Inuit Nunangat's whole-of-society search and rescure capabilities
992413
Strong SAR capabilities are also a prerequisite to economic development in the region and are required to bolster community resilience. The NSAR project’s multidisciplinary research team will build on four pillars rooted in core IQ values and laws. The first is Piliriqatigiingniq and Aajiiqatigiinniq, which will use regional roundtables to strengthen SAR relationships to build consensus on how to improve SAR in Nunavut. The second project pillar is Pilimmaksarniq, which will involve developing practical knowledge and skills for the organization, administration, and execution of community-based SAR operations.

Genetic analysis of acinetabacter baumannii phages and their receptors
992586
The project is composed of three parts: (i) Identification and analysis of A. baumannii genes that allow for bacteriophage infection, (ii) deletion of endogenous prophages in AB5075 by allelic replacement, and (iii) identifying genes responsible for capsule overproduction (often the target of bacteriophages) in strains overproducing bacterial second messenger c-di-GMP

Advanced wavefront sensing through machine learning
989277
However, doing so efficiently is extremely challenging. The Project aims to develop a better understanding of the fundamental limits of wavefront sensing and to apply advanced ML/AI techniques to optimize the sensing approach.

Plastics and heavy metals in Nunatsiavut food ways and environments
992451
The Nunatsiavut Government leads one of the most comprehensive plastic pollution monitoring programs in the Arctic, including monitoring of water, ice, shorelines, and animals. This project builds on existing Inuit-led research in this area and uses capacity sharing (rather than capacity building) to work with new and returning partners to extend this work in two ways.

Empowering communities to map rough ice and slush for safer sea-ice travel in Inuit Nunangat
993033
The approach will be grounded in IQ, and include a co-designed Inuit training program for UAV-based sea ice monitoring to augment the mature environmental data collection developed by SmartICE.
