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.

ITEA Project E!18036 SMART: Spatial Modelling, Analytics, and Real-Time Tracking
951487
ITEA Project E!18036 between Canada and the Netherlands. Esri Canada proposes to deliver a GIS-centric platform and database designed to support the “Smart City” concept. The SMART Mobility system will be an urban transportation/traffic management solution built on the latest innovations in mobile, spatial models, analytics and real-time data gathering. The management and coordination of transportation in a Smart City requires organization of large amounts of diverse data from various private and public sources much of which is real time. The data needs to be provisioned, federated, analyzed and disseminated in an intelligent manner to support more efficient, sustainable and integrated transportation systems. Transportation user applications and workflows will be available through subscriptions.
