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.

AI-Driven Space Weather Predictions for Safe and Reliable Space Operations
25STDPY29
Space weather—solar storms and geomagnetic disturbances—poses a major risk to satellites, GPS, communications, and power grids, yet current forecasts lack the accuracy and real-time updates needed for effective mitigation. This project develops an AI-powered space weather prediction system that leverages machine learning and real-time satellite data to deliver faster, more reliable, and asset-specific forecasts. By improving satellite protection, GPS reliability, and power grid resilience, this system will enable governments, space agencies, and industries to make informed, proactive decisions. In Canada, these early warnings will be critical for Arctic aviation, naval operations, and remote communications, strengthening national security and Canada’s leadership in space technology. Reliable, real-time forecasts will also enhance safety for remote communities and maritime operations, where HF radio and GNSS disruptions pose serious operational risks.
