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.

COVID-19 Response Development of the 2nd generation Covid-19 antibody test
949175
Second generation of lateral flow test for covid 19 antibody test:
The first generation covid 19 antibody test contains 85% nucleoprotein and 15% spike protein, it majorly detects nucleoprotein antibody from the infected covid 19 patient. Nucleoprotein is considered as non protective antibody, a new test will be developed to test the protective antibody, it will help us to distinguish who can still transmit the virus after the recovery of the infection, or detect asymptomic covid 19 infected people but with potential virus transmission possibility.

COVID-19 Response - Rapid SARS-CoV-2 IgM/IgG Antibody Test with Smartphone Application Software Support and Centralized Data Transfer
950321
The project is to develop a Lateral Flow Immuno-Assay (LFIA) based COVID-19 IgM/IgG test to detect SARS-CoV-2 IgM and IgG antibody in the blood samples with overall sensitivity>94%, specificity>97%. This device is designed for both professional and/or home-use by serum,plasma as well as fingertip blood sample test.
This diagnostic solution will integrate with a mobile application, QR code and cloud network. The innovation will allow for real-time monitoring of COVID-19 spread by transmitting timely data to the public health networks; hence, achieving a low-cost and high-efficiency solution for the the relevant Public Health Agency for effective collection of test data.
