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.

Minimally Invasive Bleb-Forming Punch
997106
Presenting early-stage glaucoma patients with a minimally invasive approach to lower intraocular pressure with a bleb-forming procedure as an alternative to traditional trabeculectomy or tube surgery. Minimally Invasive Bleb-Forming Punch (MIBP) uses a new, creative injector punch to drain the liquid out of the eye. The punch removes tissue creating a tunnel to allow the eye to drain without the need for an implant. This next generation glaucoma surgery is targeted to early-stage patients as an outpatient procedure. Although the MIBS devices depend on creating an external filtering bleb, they are associated with fewer risks than traditional glaucoma surgeries, offering a favorable safety profile procedure with faster recovery.
