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.

Knowledge Synthesis Grants - Informing Best Practices in Environmental and Impact Assessments
The Knowledge Synthesis Grants - Informing Best Practices in Environmental and Impact Assessments joint initiative between SSHRC and the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada (IAAC) aims to increase the understanding of existing knowledge in the social sciences and humanities and its application to environmental and impact assessments. By examining the themes, including from an inter-disciplinary perspective, the knowledge synthesis should identify lessons learned, best practices and critical gaps that may be addressed through future research.

Electric Re-Power Pilot
912836
MTB Transit Solutions is partnering with the University of Toronto and Electrovaya to undertake a bus repowering project to convert diesel buses to electric buses for York Region Transit. With this project MTB will become the first bus repair/refurbishment company in Canada to offer diesel to electric repowering. Repowering diesel buses will extend their lifespan by up to eight years as well as support significant GHG emissions reductions, amounting to approximately 83% or more fewer emissions per bus. Repowering diesel buses with electrical capabilities will also increase rider satisfaction as electric buses are lower to the ground, roomier, do not smell like fuel, lack the vibration of diesel buses, and are almost silent.
