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.

Using AstroSat Imaging to Quantify Stellar Feedback in PHANGS Galaxies
22ASTALBER
This project will use UVIT data to map newly forming stars and their disruptive effect on star-forming dust clouds in a sample of nearby galaxies studied by the PHANGS (Physics at High Angular resolution in Nearby GalaxieS) collaboration.

Nucleosynthesis, Astrophysics, and Cosmology with IR Observations of a Gravitational Wave Counterpart
22JWGO1-13
Following the JWST ERS and Cycle 1 GO Announcement of Opportunity published on June 14, 2021, the CSA is providing funding via a Grant Agreement to the university to conduct research using the JWST.
This project will advance our knowledge of binary neutron star (NS) mergers and gravitational waves by answering the following questions: What fraction of the heaviest elements come from NS mergers? What are the progenitors of BNS systems? How fast is the Universe expanding?

Pushing the Envelope of the JWST Discovery Space: Measuring the Insoluble Organic Matter (IOM) and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) Content of Comet 9P/Tempel 1
22JWGO1-15
Following the JWST ERS and Cycle 1 GO Announcement of Opportunity published on June 14, 2021, the CSA is providing funding via a Grant Agreement to the university to conduct research using the JWST.
This JWST spectroscopic study addresses fundamental questions in our understanding of the refractory organics in cometary material and the formation of the solar system. It affords the first opportunity to sample the complete infrared spectrum of cometary refractory organics, and represents a chance to test the limits of the JWST discovery space that complements cometary missions' in situ and sample analyses, thereby improving our understanding of the origins and evolution of the solar system.
