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.

Advancing microplastic impact modelling through parameterization of automated nano-digital in-line holographic microscopy (DIHM) big data
976422
Yet, the lack of physicochemical processes precludes scientists to accurately forecast the fate of microplastics in the Earth’s ecosystem. This three-year Project aims at understanding selected physicochemical transformation of microplastic particles (e.g., sedimentation velocity and aggregation), in Canadian aquatic systems. McGill’s research team will perform experiments in stationary and dynamic manners to mimic rivers. This Project strives to track microplastics and nano plastics particles individually and in groups, in Canadian waters, using two McGill innovations, for specific river water setting developed at NRC, in close collaboration with Dr.

Application of sand engine and constructed marsh sills for risk reduction
976926
In particular, the beneficial re-use of dredge material for beach nourishment or marsh sill construction has not been demonstrated in Canada. The Shippagan project will augment and build on research being conducted through the NRC-led Nature-Based Infrastructure for Coastal Resilience project, effectively adding a fifth field site and broadening the range of nature-based features investigated to include the beneficial re-use of dredge material for beach nourishment and marsh sill construction. The NRC-led project seeks to address key factors and data gaps limiting the uptake of nature-based infrastructure for coastal flood resilience and risk reduction in Canada. The proposed research is expected to strengthen and improve the NRC-led project and the quality and scope of its research outputs.
