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.

The primary goal of this project is to develop Elmer’s product agnostic data hub for data management, diagnostics, support, troubleshooting and real-time communication.
An existing Haulmaster Cloud system will be upgraded to facilitate more products than just our Haulmaster Grain Cart. Bi-directional communication between cloud and implement will mean better decision making based on real-time data. To communicate between implement and cloud means that existing systems need to be updated to open communication channel between implement and cloud using Web Sockets.
A support user will be able to either request or accept remote troubleshooting access, enabling them to see what our user sees in real-time
