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.

Japan MNE – QCEL: Quantum computing for extreme ultraviolet lithography

Agreement Number:

1030886

Duration: from Apr 16, 2025 to Sep 30, 2025
Description:

The drive for increased computing power has led to the continued miniaturization of integrated circuits, pushing feature sizes down to where quantum effects significantly impact performance. These effects have become particularly important with the advent of extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUV) for wafer patterning. Designing new photoresist materials is thus key to unlocking more advanced chip manufacturing. This project combines Xanadu’s expertise in developing quantum algorithms and Mitsubishi’s expertise in semiconductor chip manufacturing to simulate light-matter interactions in EUV lithography.
