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.

Digital ID distribution system and wallet

Agreement Number:

980937

Duration: from Sep 1, 2021 to Mar 31, 2022
Description:

Right now Vaultie is the issuer of any credential issued through its system. However, the building of a distribution system that would allow for independent organizations to issue and revoke credentials to its users would enable businesses, self-regulatory organizations, companies, or even universities to issue credentials to their customers/employees or members (“customers” or “users”). Customers would be able to carry these credentials in their digital wallet and prove, via blockchain, their affiliation to the issuer through the use of the credential. A digital credential would reduce barriers to access to gated services and create frameworks by which we could trust remote customers.
