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.

Emerging Disruptive Technologies and Global Non-proliferation Excellence (EDGE) Initiative

Agreement Number:

7466642 P015664002

Duration: from Mar 6, 2025 to Mar 31, 2026
Description:

This initiative will examine the trajectories of emerging and disruptive technologies (EDT) and other weapons of mass destruction relevant technologies (WMD-RT), with the aim of identifying those that either present WMD threats that can be countered or have the potential to support WMD non-proliferation and counter-terrorism efforts. Project activities include: (1) Conducting a Global Mapping and Horizon Scanning Workshop; (2)Conducting a Scenario Building and Futures Workshop and; (3) Producing a final report and action plan that provides insights and recommendations for Global Partnership action on weapons of mass destruction (WMD) Related Technologies

Electoral Integrity Task Force

Agreement Number:

7466664 P014984001

Duration: from Mar 6, 2025 to Aug 31, 2027
Description:

The project aims to increase voter resilience in the Philippines, Czechia, and Côte d’Ivoire to foreign manipulation and interference in information. Over a period of 15 months, the project will coordinate with journalists, content creators, civil society and public sector actors, as well as international partners and election observers, to develop context-specific interventions in the targeted countries, conduct tailored and gender-responsive training workshops, and provide technical support. The project will also establish and operate a monitoring and early warning team, which will set up a designated physical “situation room” in the country to detect, analyze, and disseminate information on interference patterns and relevant narratives, and develop actions to counter foreign manipulation and interference in information in these countries.

Arcana of the Ancients: A Spectral Metallicity Survey of the Lowest-Mass Stars and Brown Dwarfs

Agreement Number:

24JWGO3A02

Duration: from Mar 6, 2025 to Mar 1, 2027
Description:

This project will study the evolution of the atmospheric content in brown dwarfs. The observations will inform both our theoretical understanding of brown dwarf and extrasolar planet atmospheres, and future observations with JWST and other space- or ground-based large telescopes.

Detecting the Ultra-Faint Galaxies Responsible for Cosmic Reionization with Gravitational Lensing and JWST Medium Bands

Agreement Number:

24JWGO3A04

Duration: from Mar 6, 2025 to Mar 1, 2027
Description:

Most of the hydrogen gas in the Universe is ionized, but prior to the formation of galaxies, the Universe was neutral. Once stars started forming, a significant phase change occurred in the universe, a process known as “Reionization”. This project will look for the faintest possible sources of Reionization, tiny dwarf galaxies. The project targets strong-lensing clusters which provide a factor of 3 - 50 boost in the brightness of background sources. This increase in sensitivity allows the detection of extraordinarily low-mass galaxies (the equivalent of large star-clusters) during the reionization epoch and quantify their role in this process.

AI Assist ARP Pilot: Automated Vascular Health Guidelines for Enhanced Clinical Decision Support

Agreement Number:

1028354

Duration: from Mar 6, 2025 to Apr 30, 2025
Description:

Own Health will develop a comprehensive, AI-driven framework for integrating recognized cardiovascular guidelines into clinical workflows. With providers flagging risk factors at each clinical visit, the system will continuously cross-reference care with societal standards and generate individualized "guideline profiles" for patients, refining risk assessments and preventive care guidance in real time. This approach ensures that clinicians receive timely, evidence-based recommendations while maintaining direct oversight of all care decisions.
