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.

Optimize - Slashing Decisions
1028442
With the recent closure/idling of two significant pulp mills, which produced for major woodchip consumers in Ontario, investments in reducing by-products, such as woodchips, are at a premium within the forestry industry.
This project is the research and development phase to optimize the slashing operation in the wood room, aiming to increase yield FBM/m3 (foot board measure per cubic meter) and reduce the by-product generated per output FBM produced.

Deep Tunnel Production 5m Away From Face
1028464
This Project encompasses the design and implementation of the following elements for the commercialized version of the Tunnel Load Master (TLM): the command and control software, and the batch manufacturing engineering model of the fabrication components. This includes the design from concept to production-applicable, TLM matched advanced mine tunneling cycle. This new approach to tunneling in mines, functioning while the personnel are a minimum of 5 meters from the tunnel face throughout the entire cycle, enables the design of a new drill and blast series of tasks to advance the tunnel face forward, far shorter cycle time compared to the industry standard method.
