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.

AutoDefence: Towards Trustworthy Technologies for Autonomous Human-Machine Systems
The AutoDefence Micro-net research objective is to develop trustworthy technologies for autonomous human-machine systems applied in dynamic and contested defence environments.
To address the above practical challenges, the AutoDefence Micro-net will focus on the following three major research themes:
1) Cognitive Platform for Trusted Support: Novel methodologies to design trustworthy decision-support systems will be developed.
2) Cognitive Cycle of Machine Learning: Focus on cognitive load determination for semiautonomous systems in contested environments, autonomous learning systems for defence robots, unmanned systems, reliable target recognition, autonomous decision-support, and real-time battle-field awareness and cognition.
3) Distributed/Networked Autonomous Systems: Development of innovative machine learning and signal processing solutions for attack/intrusion modeling, detection, and isolation focusing on autonomy, distributed cooperation, and event-based nature of multi-agent systems.

Auto Defence: Towards Trustworthy Technologies for Autonomous Human-Machine System
Funding will support research and development to identify solutions to National Defence’s Challenge: Autonomous systems for defence and security: Trust and barriers to adoption. Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) in collaboration with Canada’s academic and defence & security communities are seeking revolutionary advances in our understanding of autonomous systems for defence and security applications, with a focus on trust and barriers to adoption.
