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.

Agreement:

Human factor impacts on on-site and off-site industrialized construction processes

Agreement Number:

1033771

Duration: from May 1, 2025 to Mar 31, 2028
Description:

While numerous studies highlighted the economic benefits of indoor manufacturing for the construction industry, the human and societal dimension associated with this novel delivery paradigm has not yet received sufficient attention. Accordingly, this Project aims to fill this gap by building a framework that would allow researchers and policymakers to evaluate whether the human dimension will act as a positive feedback loop for the adoption of the off-site paradigm in the construction industry.

Agreement:

Establishing A Good Manufacturing Practices Protocol For Production Of “off The Shelf” Immunotherapies Derived From Cord Blood Stem Cells

Agreement Number:

1029082

Duration: from May 1, 2025 to Mar 30, 2026
Description:

Cancer is the leading cause of death in Canada, and while immunotherapy shows promise, it faces challenges such as high costs, long production times, and severe side effects. The Maganti laboratory at Canadian Blood Services has developed a small molecule cocktail to improve the production of "off-the-shelf" immune cells from cord blood stem cells. However, this technology needs optimization for clinical scale production of chimeric antigen receptor-expressing NK (CAR-NK) cells using good manufacturing practices (GMP). This proposal aims to create a GMP qualifying manufacturing protocol to produce CAR-NK cells (expressing a novel CD20 CAR) at clinical scale, making immunotherapy more accessible, affordable, and safer, ultimately improving cancer treatment in Canada.
