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.

Duration: from Dec 1, 2025 to Jun 29, 2026
Description:

Rhythm games and combat shooters are both well-established in the VR space, but, no commercially successful title has yet merged these genres. This project facilitates the further development of our genre-busting VR game “Freakout” and advances D&D Skunkworks’ goal of building a strong, innovative IP portfolio thereby solidifying itself within the VR, LBE VR and VR training sectors. The addition of this unique gaming innovation, including the possibility of various AI non-player character (NPC) integrations, provides myriad opportunities for the company, both within multiple versions of the existing game, as a core vendor within the space and the ability to transfer the knowledge to our other platforms like Bridge VR Training.
