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.

Ottawa River microplastic field sampling and microplastic predictive model performance validation

Agreement Number:

1031688

Duration: from Apr 30, 2025 to Feb 1, 2027
Description:

The Project will advance the understanding of microplastics in Canadian waters by evaluating the accuracy and precision of a three-dimensional numerical model developed by the NRC to predict microplastic distribution in the Ottawa River through both space (different areas of the river) and time (different seasons). Specifically, this field-based project will assess the prevalence, distribution, and characteristics of microplastic pollutants in the Ottawa River using standardized protocols for comparison against predicted values based on the modelled distribution of microplastics in the river. Further, the team will test if greater microplastic concentrations occur in areas or times of greater dissolved organic carbon concentrations. Data from the Project will be integrated in a public access portal, with the results to feed into a larger project across Canada to examine microplastic concentrations and characteristics in targeted Canadian rivers.
