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.

Enhanced AI Plagiarism
1043619
Originality.ai will develop an AI-enhanced plagiarism detection tool that goes beyond identifying potentially plagiarized or paraphrased content. The project will automate the currently manual review process by analyzing flagged sections, assessing whether they represent true plagiarism, summarizing the highest-risk issues, and identifying the likely source material. The system will also generate suggested edits to help users revise problematic sections while preserving meaning and originality. This R&D project will require new AI models, datasets, testing methods, and product integration to create a more accurate, efficient, and actionable plagiarism workflow.
