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.

Sender Security Verification Tool & Process

Agreement Number:

998021

Duration: from Nov 16, 2022 to Mar 15, 2023
Description:

The purpose of the proposed sender verification tool & process project is to de-risk Fly and Fetch from potential abusers to the platform. By verifying the sender’s identity and creating a process that links them with the package they are sending, Fly and Fetch will lower the risk of contrabands and illegal materials being shipped. This project involves developing an input interface that will allow hub managers to scan the sender’s IDs and input their picture into the system. Next, the custom-built verification system will verify the sender’s identity and associate the information about the package with the verified sender. By developing the sender verification system, Fly and Fetch will be more safe and investable.
