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.

CELTIC Project 2019/2-5: AIMM - Simulation-based Tool for 5G Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) Systems

Agreement Number:

969086

Duration: from Mar 1, 2021 to Nov 30, 2022
Description:

This CEMWorks project is part of a CELTIC project 2019/2-5 led by InterDigital of the U.K. The Artificial Intelligence-Enabled Massive Multiple-Input Multiple-Outputs Systems (AIMM) project is designed to implement practical test beds based on off-the-shelf software radio technology to target radical performance improvements in existing 5G networks through higher-order massive MIMO setups powered through advancements in AI. CEMWorks role will be to develop a simulation tool for virtual prototyping of 5G Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems. This solution features novel algorithms that will enable new capabilities and significant cost reductions of next-generation 5G/6G network and equipment design.

Voluntary Swim-In (VSI) System Development

Agreement Number:

969222

Duration: from Mar 1, 2021 to Mar 31, 2022
Description:

The salmon farming industry is currently using an inefficient process to handle the movement of fish, causing poor fish health and resulting in reduced yield and higher costs. The patent pending VSI System will provide significant improvement to the movement of fish throughout the lifecycle of the fish farming process. The VSI system provides a more natural environment to encourage fish movement, which results in healthier fish, improved yield, and is less labor intensive, which will benefit the operator and aquaculture industry as a whole.
