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.

Expanding the Development Team
973502
ITRAK 365 is an in-house developed QHSE software solution built on the Microsoft Power Platform. It is currently in the scale up phase of its business. With focus on extending platform functions, the development team is experiencing pressure on their capacity to continue advancing and improving the software versions in parallel to developing new concepts and ideas to integrate. As demand in the QHSE software market grows, given government restrictions/regulations and the recent COVID-19 pandemic, ITRAK is keen to expand its already strong development team and obtain long-term skillful individuals. ITRAK is looking to add a Junior Developer to relieve capacity restraint and contribute to the overall success of the ITRAK software solution.
