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.

Evacuation protocols during wildfires – modelling the evacuation
982129
Existing tools for emergency evacuation modeling and resource planning have weaknesses including:
• Current support tools do not meet emergency services’ decision support needs.
• Most existing resource optimization tools are single-stage planning only (i.e., they do not address resident relocation and resource deployment), ignoring the multi-stage character of Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) fires.
• Integrated solutions for evacuation modelling and resource optimization do not exist.
The over arching Small teams project will address the aforementioned weaknesses and build an integrated Resident Safety Platform (RSP). The RSP will combine evacuation simulation and resource optimization in a way that the former will predict parameters used by the latter. The integrated platform can be used by stakeholders to determine wildfire evacuation and resource allocation policies in an evidence-based manner.
This part of the project, in collaboration with Lund University, addresses the modelling of the evacuation of residents from communities threatened by WUI (Wildfire Urban Interface) fires.
