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.

Graph Representation Learning with Limited Labeled Data for Property Prediction in Design
964159
Such state-of-the-art graph neural networks for property prediction, rely heavily on supervised learning with large labelled datasets, which is typically expensive and time-consuming.
This Project will examine the development of fundamental techniques for graph representation learning in the presence of limited labeled data, aiming at accurate property prediction of novel designs. The successful outcome of this Project will be a learning framework that enables the efficient learning of graph representation with limited labelled data.

Building orgnanizational strength by establishing new provincial networks, partnerships and coalitions
NA18825
This 39-month project will address organizational capacity needs to allow Child Care Now (Childcare Advocacy Association of Canada) to continue promoting social and systemic change towards gender equality. The focus of the project will be the establishment of childcare coalitions and networks in regions in Canada that currently lack them so as to be in a better position to advocate for the kind of evidence-based public childcare policy measures that will lead to enhanced economic security for women. Activities will include an analysis and mapping of the current state of childcare advocacy in Canada to identify the strategic targets and priorities of the project; and the development of tools, mechanisms, training, and other resources to support new and existing networks, partnerships, and coalitions. The project would help Child Care Now develop and implement sustainability strategies, including long-term planning and the diversification of its funding base.
