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.

Agreement:

Identifying peatland wildfire susceptibility using remote sensing

Agreement Number:

FIRENFC-24

Duration: from Aug 6, 2021 to Mar 31, 2022
Description:

The objective of this project is to build on the results of the pilot project by investigating a larger number of fires and longer time series. The Proponent will additionally incorporate trends in vegetation conditions (i.e., phenology) through multi-spectral imagery and investigate machine-learning techniques for prediction of fire susceptibility. It is expected that a methodology to use space-based remote sensing will be operationalized that enables the near-real time monitoring of conditions in peatlands and prediction of susceptibility to wildfire, enabling fire management agencies to identify severe conditions sooner, enhancing the safety and security of Canadians.
