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.

Duration: from Mar 21, 2024 to Aug 31, 2024
Description:

The AISES (American Indian Science and Engineering Society) team at the University of Waterloo is designing, testing, and fabricating a rocket that will fly to 2000 ft above ground level, then deploy a lander that will parachute back to the ground. The lander will carry a GPS/tracking system and a camera, which will provide a video recording of the landing. The rocket and payload will be designed to meet all requirements outlined by the “First Nations Launch (FNL) Moon Challenge” for the 2023-24 competition. The competition will be held in Wisconsin, where the team will work with and compete against other Indigenous student teams from across Turtle Island. Participating in this competition will help team members gain experience with collaboration, teamwork, and the application of technical skills to real-world space projects.
