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.

Sexual Violence Response Advocate
13273475
The “Sexual Violence Response Advocate” project will provide the services of a dedicated advocate to address systemic and societal factors faced by victims of sexual violence through trauma and violence informed programming. The advocate will provide improved access to the Victim Quick Response Program (VQRP+) and court support and accompaniment to navigate the justice system. The project will also allow the organization to create and deliver a campaign entitled “Nothing to See Here” generating awareness around sexual violence online through cyber-crime and online extortion involving the non-consensual distribution of intimate images and child sexual abuse materials. The organization will lead the development of a technology safety toolkit to be shared publicly in the community to assist victims of these types of crimes to proactively protect themselves, as well as prevent any further harmful behaviours from occurring.

On-Chip Multi-Wavelength Coherent Comb Light Source for Converged Optical and Wireless Access Networks
1023867
This project focuses on the development of a high-performance on-chip multi-wavelength coherent comb light source through the hybrid integration of key photonic components, including a quantum dot (QD) comb laser, QD semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA), optical isolator and polarization-maintaining (PM) fiber. The core activities will involve establishing optical interconnections between these components using novel advanced technologies, such as 3D-printed polymer micro-optics, culminating in a proof-of-concept demonstration. This project will be executed in collaboration between the NRC and Aeponyx, the two primary partners contributing the necessary expertise and technologies to achieve the project’s final goals

IEA Grant Agreement Number: Certified Natural Gas Report
GC-130607S
Certified natural gas production and consumption could yield benefits, including climate and energy security benefits. However, there lacks an international and authoritative publication on the existing and potential market for and impacts of certified natural gas. Therefore, Canada proposes for the IEA to publish a specific report, accompanied by international engagement, dialogue and facilitation on this topic.
