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.

HiCIBaS II - High-Constrast Imaging Balloon System - Adaptive Optics at High Altitude
Advances in space-based instruments for planetary observation involve significant costs. Fortunately, suborbital balloon flights enable the development and testing of instrumentation in space-like conditions at a fraction of the cost of full-fledged orbiting space instruments.
Building on previous work, this project aims to demonstrate and evaluate the performance of adaptive optics systems in space-like conditions. Test will done on a high-resolution deformable mirror within a closed-loop adaptive optics system and a camera with passive thermal control in the stratosphere. Furthermore, data on atmospheric turbulence will be gathered in full night and at sunrise at a height of 36 to 40 km.
HiCIBaS-II is a great opportunity to maintain Canadian world-leadership in this area, while advancing knowledge and training the next generation of highly qualified personnel that the industry requires.
