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.

The behaviour and performance of cobble berms and dynamic revetments for coastal erosion and flood risk management in canada
952577
A dynamic revetment, also known as a "cobble berm", uses gravel or cobblesized rocks to mimic a natural cobble beach for the purpose of reducing wave energy and stopping or slowing coastal erosion. Unlike seawalls, dynamic revetment is designed to allow wave action to rearrange the stones into an equilibrium profile, disrupting wave action and dissipating wave energy as the cobbles move. This research project will employ a combination of field surveys, laboratory experiments, and numerical modelling to develop an improved understanding of the physical processes governing the behaviour and performance of such shore protection systems. Methods to predict the behaviour and performance of cobble berms that can be used as design tools will be developed and validated. The research findings will be summarized in a peer-reviewed research paper and a guidance document for practitioners.

This initiative provided pharmaceutical-grade prescribed alternatives (safer supply) medications (opioid/OAT/stimulant) to address the overdose risk posed by the toxic illegal drug market. It included outreach, medication delivery and fixed site services, including services and a safe and secure outdoor space for People Who Use Drugs (PWUD) by inhalation, with an emphasis on current gaps in the service continuum. The project also served as a point of entry to wraparound health and social services including primary and addiction care.

Delivered a prescribed alternatives (safer supply) program that prescribed pharmaceutical-grade opioids to people most at risk of overdose. The project focused on those who had been diagnosed with an opioid use disorder and who had not been helped by traditional substance use services and treatments.
