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.

Cyberspace, discourse, ASEAN soft power
7464837 P015204001
Laval University proposes a research project in Thailand in collaboration with Thammasat University. This project's activities include: 1) analyzing the development of soft power by states in the region in cyberspace; 2) mobilizing of soft power in the expression of geopolitical conflicts in Southeast Asia; 3) identifying the opportunities that this situation represents for Canada, its population, its diplomacy, and its businesses. This project rely on a significant research component, around which training and knowledge dissemination activities are integrated. It will be structured around three main axes: the representation of geopolitical conflicts in the South China Sea in cyberspace, the online expression of soft power by Southeast Asian countries, and Canadians' perception of information circulating in and about Asian cyberspace. This project is aligned with 4 of the 5 Strategic Objectives of Canada's Indo-Pacific Strategy: 1.
