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.

Improving responses to wrongful conviction through stakeholder engagement
11137068
Over the course of the three-year project, Innocence Canada will establish a national coalition of organizations and individuals active in addressing the issue of wrongful convictions. The coalition will be led by Innocence Canada as the secretariat. The project will enhance the capacity of legal professionals, academic institutions, Innocence Projects and technical experts to better respond to issues relating to wrongful conviction. Web-based tools will be used to link members and to facilitate the exchange of information. The project will develop capacity among wrongful conviction stakeholders across Canada to engage in public awareness and knowledge-sharing activities. The project will improve the quality of resources that are available to stakeholders and will promote national collaboration on the issue.

ARP - 3D millimetric scanning of the foot
947481
The objective of this project is to develop the technologies necessary for the characterization and recognition of a foot in its three-dimensional representation from video sequences captured with mobile platforms moving in relation to objects. The aim is not to develop a 3D scanner but to use three-dimensional parameters to recognize a foot, its measurements and its malformations. The solution that we wish to propose on the market allows us to address these problems (and subsequently many others) by offering a mobile application that is easy to use, with a user-friendly interface, requiring no specific training and, above all, no dedicated material.
