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.

Learning from big historical geospatial data on environmental impact to shellfish industry for predictive models and monitoring toolkits
969192
Via the Canadian Shellfish Sanitation Program (CSSP), data has been accumulated over the past 40 years, across the six coastal provinces, on 14,710 shellfish harvesting sites. This data includes information on fecal coliform bacteria and marine bio toxins that cause shellfish poisonings. This Project involves a collaboration between NRC and the University of Victoria to analyze historical CSSP data using machine learning and artificial intelligence approaches to extract valuable knowledge. The Project aims to apply digital technologies to explore historical patterns and build prediction models of future contamination levels. The goal is to provide protective prediction and strategic monitoring of the shellfish industry to (a) help assess the environmental impact caused by municipal construction projects, climate change, and other human activities, and (b) to generate a toolkit for visualizing historical and geospatial contamination patterns while predicting future contamination levels across Canada.
