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.

Optimized Protocols and Architecture for Satellite-Based QKD Network
20STDPL25
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) aims at creating shared cryptographic keys by exploiting the fundamental laws of quantum physics. Terrestrial QKD networks suffer from a limitation related to the maximal possible physical distance between directly connected nodes. Satellite based QKD network is an answer to this call. Secure-key sharing can be achieved between ground stations located across the nation in a timely, reliable and economical way with QKD-capable satellites. However, compared to its optical fibre-based counterpart, a satellite QKD network has a time-varying network topology and fluctuating QKD key generating capacities between the satellites and ground stations. This brings in unique new challenges related to planning and operations. Factors such as weather conditions, seasonal effects, and many others need to be taken into consideration in designing and running the system in the most effective and economical way. The project aims at developing the tools needed to solve such challenges, mainly through QKD network control technologies, optimization algorithms, their software implementation, and integration with QKD hardware.
