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.

Learner Outcome Benchmarking
990231
They are currently drowning in data, but this data is highly “siloed” both within a function of a program (say program management which often has 20 or more systems that create data) and between functions (admissions doesn’t “talk” or share data with program management). Programs need to be able to benchmark both internally and across schools to understand, not only how they are improving internally, but how they are doing against their peers.

Eco-Seis - Phase2: Optimizing Seismic Acquisition for Reduced Environmental Footprint
987962
The Eco-Seis approach to seismic acquisition combines alternative geometries with a unique distribution of sources and is not limited to a single source type or a single model. Rather, this method combines new minimal impact seismic sources with a sparse distribution of conventional sources, then applies these sources in a unique geometry focused on maintaining sensitive habitat and minimizing surface disturbances while also providing high quality seismic data and safe access for field personnel. This method will work with geometry variations and multiple source types, increasing the ability to minimize surface disturbance and making it possible to apply the method in many different types of terrains both within Canada and internationally.
