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.

LABEISS system (Laser Ablation Elemental Isotopic Spectrometer)
20STDPL10
Based on recent advances in analytical optical spectroscopic techniques using laser ablation, a more compact and versatile instrument is presented. It will allow analysis without any sample preparation and with the analytical instrument at a distance from the sample. The instrument combines LIBS (Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy) and LAMIS (Laser Ablation Molecular Isotopic Spectrometry) technologies, and when used while exploring extraterrestrial environments it will provide isotopic analyses with a precision that can help our understanding of how these bodies came to be, their continuing dynamics, and even give clues to biologically related processes. The primary challenge of this AO 6.2 Space in R&D is to determine the best implementation of combining the LAMIS method with LIBS (and possibly Raman operation) to determine isotopic elemental composition and quantification for different targets. As a second challenge, the proposal includes the development of a robust system that can be applied in other fields such as nuclear science, geology and archeology among other emerging needs of the marketplace. Supporting this technology development and pioneering this field will place Canada in an excellent position for future space exploration missions to the moon, asteroids, comets, Mars as well as other astro-biologically targeted missions
