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.

Developing Machine Learning and Knowledge Engineering for an Evolving Agriculture Marketplace
948784
ML in grain market analysis will transform the grain services industry. In the financial and insurance industries, leading banks and financial services companies are deploying AI technology, including ML (ML), to streamline their processes, optimize portfolios, decrease risk and underwrite loans amongst other things. The benefits of ML that are already being recognized in these industries can be applied to grain market analysis and portfolio recommendations. This project first seeks to develop and build on FarmLink’s current analytical protocols using ML techniques and secondly to take its enhanced recommendations to use ML to build a customer facing advanced marketing tool. The benefit to our famer customers will be a streamlined, simple to use individualized tool to empower their financial business plans and a step towards a Farmer 4.0.

Preserving the Past for Future Generations: Digitizing the Documentary Heritage of Remote Northern Communities
2021-0015
The Pitquhirnikkut Ilihautiniq/Kitikmeot Heritage Society will digitize 1,000 35-mm slides that capture unseen moments in the lives of people, past and present, in the Central Canadian Arctic. The Laserich Collection offers insight into life in remote Inuit communities. These images span decades and capture everyday lives, people and places.
No other collection offers this volume of information and such a broad context of life in the North. It will enhance Canadian understanding of northern communities and help them to preserve and share their documentary heritage. The organization will share images through its Inuit Knowledge Bank and engage with community Elders to identify the peoples, places and content in the photographs.
