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.

High-dimensional quantum key distribution (QKD) link for next generation free space communication
962065
Information and communication play a central role in today’s modern society. Secure communication is essential for stability of Canada’s finance and health sectors, Canadian infrastructure, and effective operations of the Canadian government’s defense and security organizations. Existing secure communication protocols are vulnerable to the advances in quantum computing. Moreover, transmitting carefully crafted quantum states of photons offers a suite of solutions for secure communication that are immune to adversaries with the ability to perform quantum computation. Secure key distribution between two or more parties in a network is one of the most studied subjects in classical and quantum communications for sharing secure messages.
