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.

Intern for Air Cathode Development
923035
Air cathode is a key component of e-Zn's energy storage technology. It is also the only component that cannot be obtained in the open market currently; we have been source it through another metal-air developer. In order to secure air cathode supply, we want to explore the possibility of establishing our own cathode making capability. T his project aims to 1) to assess the possibility and and the issues of making air cathode in house, 2) to see if we can make prototype air cathode with properties close to those obtained from our supplier.

Deep Neural Network
912890
To expand or work to integrate Deep Neural Network based matching algorithm into our search and matching tools (Deep Neural Networks (DNN have an input layer, an output layer and at least one hidden layer in between. Each layer performs specific types of sorting and ordering in a process that some refer to as “feature hierarchy.” Extracted features such as keywords, n-grams, TF/IDF, LSI etc. from target training job/resume, will be our input layers. Through DNN training, we will have refined output layer which is the result of initial input layer and several hidden layers generated by DNN. In the second step this output result will be decoded by applied to our target testing resume.) .
