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.

Parallel Hybrid Hydraulic Electrification Platform
974163
The goal of this project is to build a universal electrification platform that will handle propel systems and provide the prime mover for hydraulic work functions that are not efficiently executed through electric motors. The goal will be to translate this package across many off-highway mobile hydraulic applications – these will be principally designed for battery electric vehicles but will be compatible with active front end applications as well.

Youth Green-Autonomous Hay Bailer
921857
The goal of this project is to develop production-ready autonomously driving hay bailers that will be powered through a tractor. When cutting hay, the bailer will autonomously follow windrows. When driving on roads, the bailer will automatically follow the tractor to make transportation of the system easier to operate and safer.This bailer will be pulled by a tractor that will allow for two bailers to be pulled by one tractor, thus reducing the fuel and greenhouse gases used during the hay season.

YOUTH GREEN - FDCANnect - Smart Phone Cement Tracking and Control
906165
Designing and programming a concrete recipe and calibration app to more-effectively set up concrete machines. Current systems lack proper calibration techniques due ot the HMIs available int he field. By bringing the process to an app we are able to accurately prepare custom programs for each truck to reduce the amount of cement being mixed into concrete.
