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.

Scaling Product Backend for User Analytics

Agreement Number:

952337

Duration: from May 1, 2020 to Mar 31, 2021
Description:

metaKinetic, is a simulation-based training application for Energy technical professionals. The platform hosts tens of simulations to teach complex concepts and workflows in geosciences and subsurface engineering through visualization and user interaction. With the forecast of hundreds of active users, the need for tracking, collecting, and analyzing user information as they interact with the application is inevitable. The primary objective of the proposed project is to re-factor and expand the existing product backend to enable user data collection and scalability by implementing a new architecture (while continuing to support the current version until the rollout) to further the business growth and product development.

Performance evaluation for polymer glazings for transportation

Agreement Number:

952653

Duration: from May 1, 2020 to Dec 31, 2024
Description:

Weatherability is one of the most important requirements for polymer glazings in transportation. However, standards and testing methods adapted to Canada’s climate do not exist and weathering tests, which require specific equipment and expertise, are very expensive and time consuming. The CTT Group, a college technology center in Quebec, has a world class expertise and infrastructure in accelerated weathering of synthetic materials. As a collaborator of the NRC in the CLIP Glazings Project, the CTT Group will develop weathering test protocols applicable to the Canadian climate and will execute short-term performance and accelerated weathering testing to 1) provide guidance for NRC’s polymer glazing development, and 2) evaluate the weathering performance of the glazings developed throughout the CLIP Glazings Project so as to assess their viability in the Canadian climate.

Crowdsourcing Framework for Last Mile Delivery By Leveraging Artificial Intelligence and Blockchain

Agreement Number:

952656

Duration: from May 1, 2020 to Apr 30, 2023
Description:

The purpose of the project is to develop an efficient and effective open framework for last-mile delivery (LMD) to reduce cost and optimize the delivery time. The proposed framework will leverage emerging technologies and business models. In particular, it will utilize artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, and crowdsourcing techniques. The outcome of the project will be an open and extensible framework by design. In particular, the framework will be agnostic towards the operational environment (e.g., city road network, district planning) and carrier resources.
