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.

Agreement:

Advancing SSA Data Processing Performance

Agreement Number:

25STDPX31

Duration: from Sep 3, 2025 to Aug 31, 2027
Description:

NorthStar will advance the critical capability to identify hundreds of thousands of unknown space objects by processing millions of space-based optical observations per day. Achieving this to commercial standards requires innovative adaptations of Initial Orbit Determination algorithms and massively parallel data processing pipeline methods configured in novel architectures. This project will adapt new Big Data methods to process unknown objects with a system that will scale appropriately as the NorthStar constellation expands, while still meeting latency and security requirements.

Agreement:

Engineering genetic countermeasures against ionizing radiation a human iPSC-based model for targeting oxidative stress DNA damage and cellular senescence

Agreement Number:

25HLSRM10

Duration: from Sep 3, 2025 to Jul 15, 2027
Description:

This project will develop a robust human cell culture-based pipeline for engineering innate radiation protection mechanisms. As opposed to traditional models which lack biological relevance, this proposal leverages the use of hPSCs and derived cells thereof, constituting both a sensitive and relevant approach. The project will identify potential gene therapy targets that can confer radioprotective phenotypes by effectively reducing oxidative stress, DNA damage, and cell death responses whilst deepening our understanding of their underlying mechanisms. This approach could significantly advance efforts to protect human health in the challenging environment of space. The data generated herein is a potentially invaluable resource for the Canadian Space Agency and others for prediction of radiation resistance factors in living systems. Finally, this project will engineer gene therapy delivery vectors to demonstrate effective radiation protection in target cell culture models relevant for spaceflight environments.
