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.

Super-charging Euclid's Deep Field North
24EXPROSS4
The project will combine U-band imaging from the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) with Euclid, Subaru, and Spitzer data in the Euclid Deep Field North to produce photometric catalogs of millions of galaxies over an unprecedented combination of area (10 sq deg) and depth (27 mag). The U-band data we will add to this dataset is key for accurate photometric redshifts and measuring rates of star formation in galaxies. The joint catalogs will open a large field of science areas for investigation; in particular, the team will study how the fates of millions of galaxies are governed by their locations within the filamentary, Universe-pervading Cosmic Web. The catalogs will contain millions of galaxies and will be made public enabling a vast array of research and a legacy treasure-trove.
