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.

Development of a solar powered Uncrewed Surface Vehicle (USV) with modular sensor platform and obstacle avoidance system for optimized ease-of-use
952925
This project will develop a solar powered uncrewed surface vehicle (USV) that is optimized for ease-of-use through the creation of an obstacle avoidance system and modular oceanographic sensor platform. Obstacle avoidance enables the USV to conduct missions with increased safety and with minimal intervention, making it possible to conduct endurance operations of multiple months and navigate in crowded waterways, which significantly grows our market for USV sales and mission-as-a-service offerings. An easy-to-use platform for diverse sensor integration of hardware and software components enables the USV to collect and transmit data from a broad range of sensors significantly expanding the utility of the USV and its customer base.
