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.

OCIP Voucher Program 2025
1031224
The voucher funding program aims to de-risk business opportunities for Canadian rural and northern SMEs by connecting them with academic expertise to foster collaboration and R&D capacity. The program prioritizes inclusivity, supporting Indigenous-owned and led businesses, as well as those owned and led by women and other equity-deserving groups. It addresses systemic barriers these businesses face in accessing researchers and resources, aiming to level the playing field and expand participation through targeted outreach and partnerships. Activities include webinars, training sessions, and structured meetings to facilitate collaboration and innovation, while ensuring efficient program management and reporting. Quantified targets aim to enhance engagement and measure impact, supporting the development of professional Research and Development Statements of Work and advancing scopes of work to full-scale research projects
