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.

Effects of Prolonged Exposure to a Space Analog Environment on Cardiovascular variability and Cardio-postural Interactions
23HLSHANA1
Wobbly legs, dizzy spells and even fainting experienced by astronauts on return to Earth are serious health and safety concerns. While a major part of this is the loss of the effect of gravity on the body, another may be related to being isolated in a small group. This results in stress which could result in reduced quality of life and health. This is not unlike what many of us experienced during the pandemic lock down. The HERA facility allows us to study how posture and cardiovascular function are affected in isolation to better protect astronauts and isolated older persons.
