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.

The objective of this initiative is to use student rocket activities as a highly visible talent magnet to attract undergraduate students, to enhance space related discovery learning through practical hands-on instruction, and to create an exceptional learning experience and environment for undergraduate students. Ultimately, CaNoRock will attract undergraduate students and bridge them into space related graduate study or the aerospace industry. CaNoRock will leverage several funding sources to create new sounding rocket payload laboratory capability within Canadian academia.

The main objective of this project is increasing awareness of Canadian space science and technology among Canadian youth and educators. A view from space is the ultimate geographical perspective and there is a natural affinity between geography and space that underlines the rationale for this project. The Royal Canadian Geographical Society's readers, teachers and students all want to learn more about space.
