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 Advanced Materials for Improved Protection Against Ballistic Impacts, Wear and Corrosion Damage with Additive Manufacturing and Cold Spraying
CFPMN1-035
The project aims to develop advanced high strength materials in the form of nanostructured and high-entropy alloys, with enhanced mechanical properties, to improve the resistance to damage from high velocity ballistics and shrapnel projectiles by developing functionally-graded (FG) materials and structures which will replace the heavy ceramic-metal polymer layers in current armour.

Artificially Intelligent Biomimetic Metasurfaces for Electromagnetic Camouflage
CFPMN1-040
The project aims to mimic the camouflaging abilities of an octopus using artificial means and apply this technology in a defence and security context to conceal personnel and military platforms behind a real-time reconfigurable un-detectability veil, thus sending illusions and misinformation to adversaries.
