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.

Develop Sensor Based Adaptive Welding Platform
919470
The American Welding Society's A3.0M/3.0 Standard Welding Terms and Definitions defines mechanized welding as "welding with equipment that requires manual adjustment of the equipment response to visual observation of the welding, with a torch, gun, or electrode holder held by a mechanical device". It defines automated welding as "welding with equipment that requires only occasional or no observation of the weld, and no manual adjustment of the equipment controls".
The aim of this project is to develop a broad-based platform for enabling equipment typically deployed for mechanized applications to be automated, and for this platform to be flexible enough for customer-optimization and basic programming for application-specific use.
