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.

Development of a multi-scale cryosphere monitoring network for the Kitikmeot region and Northwest Territories using modeling and remote sensing
PKC-NST-1718-0021
The overarching objective of this project is to improve the monitoring of the cryosphere through the development of a monitoring network in order to better predict and assess the multi- levels impacts of arctic climate change.

Development of a multi-scale cryosphere monitoring network for the Kitikmeot region and Northwest territories using in-situ measurements, modeling and remote sensing
NST-1718-0021
Climate warming in northern regions has had consequences at physical (permafrost freeze/thaw cycles), ecological (increased shrubiness, mammals' habitat changes), social (hunting/trapping, transportation) and economic levels (infrastructure, shipping and resources). The objective of the proposed project is to improve the monitoring of the cryosphere through the development of a monitoring network in order to better predict the multi-levels impacts of arctic climate change.
