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.

Pea Genomics: Using Computational Analytics for Enhanced Genomic Prediction.
1018576
The proposed Grant & Contribution project aims to perform essential
computational analyses in support of the PeaCE (Pea Climate Efficient)
project approved by Genome Canada. This entails evaluating the genetic
variation present within the Climate-Smart Pea Germplasm Resource
(CSPGR), a collection comprising 2000 lines.
The project also seeks to develop an advanced genomic prediction
framework for peas, with the potential to expedite the breeding cycle and
facilitate the integration of greater genetic diversity into breeding programs.
To achieve this, the project will employ a combination of cutting-edge
statistical models and artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML)
algorithms to analyze genomic data and predict crucial traits in peas,
including disease resistance, stress tolerance, yield potential, and other
significant agronomic characteristics. By leveraging these computational
tools, the project aims to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of pea
breeding programs.
