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.

MARITIME TRANSPORT REQUIREMENTS FOR THE CANADIAN ITS REFERENCE ARCHITECTURE

Agreement Number:

954370

Duration: from Jul 21, 2020 to Mar 31, 2021
Description:

The digital ocean initiative ensuring interoperability between water and land based transportation systems is a high priority for Canada’s marine industry. This can be accomplished by expanding the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) reference architecture, which is land-based, to include the maritime sector. Transport is a multimodal process and overall transport efficiency can be improved by better supply chain logistics, using automation to improve access to transport information. In the road sector, the Canadian Intelligent Transport Systems Reference Architecture (ITS-RA) provides a framework that has been used for developing interoperable software solutions across Canada. However, to support the digital transformation of supply chain logistics for intelligent shipping, the maritime domain needs to be better represented in the Canadian ITS-RA and therefore a maritime extension is required. This project aims to establish a statement of requirements for this extension and further support Maritime ITS interoperability.
