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.

FacePass
1001293
The FacePass R&D project will build on Face4's recent seamless travel R&D projects with Canada Border Services Agency (air and land borders) and Eurostar (UK Train border). Each of these systems allows a traveller to self-enroll using a mobile app, create a digital travel credential (DTC), and use only face as the single security token for identity verification at the border checkpoint.
The objective project is to develop a more advanced and robust seamless travel solution and pilot it at one of the most secure and demanding airport environments in the world. The input and feedback from Israel Airports Authority will enhance data security, cybersecurity, privacy and traveller/staff user experience for both air and land borders.
