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.

Improved Air Domain Awareness for the Integration of Drones into the Airspace

Agreement Number:

1023566

Duration: from Sep 2, 2024 to Nov 20, 2025
Description:

The Project is focused on innovative technologies used to support the integration of drones in our national airspace and builds off of the advances we developed in our previous ADA project. The development of these technologies will significantly enhance air domain awareness (ADA) and decision support capabilities in Accipiter’s existing surveillance products and services and support two emerging applications: (i) flying drones safely beyond visual line of sight through detect and alert (DAA) technology instead of visual observers in order to avoid mid-air collisions of concern to regulators such as Transport Canada and NAV CANADA; and (ii) protecting airports, low-flying crewed aircraft, critical infrastructure, the public and law enforce

Generative AI/NLP Based Real Time Recommendation Engine

Agreement Number:

1021632

Duration: from Sep 2, 2024 to Feb 28, 2025
Description:

The proposed project is dedicated to building the foundational infrastructure for a Generative AI and Natural Language Processing (NLP) based real-time recommendation engine, specifically designed for high-value processes in the financial services sector. While our current tools already collect contextual data around these critical workflows, this project will establish the groundwork for developing 'specialized' AI models that are tailored to these high-stakes processes, enabling even greater efficiencies across the financial sector. The initiative will ensure the that real-time recommendations are contextual to the process, ultimately, enhancing performance, compliance and regulatory alignment.
