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.

ARP - Incorporation of reinforcing agents in mixtures of post-consumer recycled polymers
937782
The upgrading of post-consumer recycled polymers requires that they have the same or even better properties than virgin polymers while keeping a lower cost. To improve the mechanical performance of post-consumer plastics, technical loads must be incorporated into them. The dispersion of reinforcements in a mixture of post-consumer recycled polymers already presents many challenges, but when the obligation of profitability is added to it, it becomes a challenge that requires industrial collaboration between all the actors involved. This project will enable Soleno and its partners to develop solutions that will eventually overcome this challenge.

Smart Asset Tracker for Life Science Enterprises
937937
Perform a controlled Beta study at a hospital in collaboration with our prospect customer Baxter. The business problem we are looking to solve is each year, $20B of portable medical device equipment goes missing. Unlike existing commercial methods to locate portable medical device equipment, the scope of our project is to perform a controlled study in collaboration with a Medical Device OEM and a local hospital. The intent of the study will be to further develop the application of a cloud based and custom IoT hardware solution for the purposes of boundless geographical location detection of equipment. If a medical device is not where it should be, we will automatically and proactively notify owners of exceptions to avoid the loss.
