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.

Organized by SEDS Canada, the Canadian Stratospheric Balloon Experiment Design Challenge (CAN-SBX) is a national competition for Canadian post-secondary students to design and test a small scientific experiment to fly on board a high-altitude balloon provided by the Centre national d'études spatiales (CNES) in partnership with the Canadian Space Agency (CSA). Two winning teams were selected by SEDS Canada to attend the 2019 CAN-SBX launch campaign in Timmins, Ontario in August 2019 and to test their experiments. Students who participated in this event were given a unique opportunity to work alongside scientists and engineers from Canada and Europe while gaining valuable hands-on experience with launch operations, technology testing and data analysis. This grant provided financial support to the student for her travel and living expenses associated with the launch campaign.
