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.

Efficient and Accurate 2D Modeling for 3D Components through Active Learning
1022576
Previous work has demonstrated that machine learning models can create a reliable link between 2D and 3D representations of select grating coupler configurations that include metamaterials. This project expands on that work by offering to build a single joint surrogate model representing multiple grating coupler configurations simultaneously and leverage active learning tools to perform efficient data collection to train such a complex model.

Classroom SpaceFarers: Lunar Gateway AI + Robotics
22STEMCKCJ
“Classroom SpaceFarers: Lunar Gateway AI + Robotics” is a three-year undertaking that will involve Canadian youth (grades 6 to 9) and their educators in three activities: Code in the Stars campaign that will engage educators (virtually through a campaign, and directly through educator training events/professional development); a Lunar Gateway Pitch that will directly target students through a national pitch experience; and the Classroom SpaceFarers: an AI-Enabled Robotics Residencies, a deep impact, multi-day experience in ten sites. The three phases build upon each other, with deeper engagement and impact on the participants at each phase.
