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.

Development of Abrasion-Resistant and Anti-Fouling Coatings for Ice-Class Vessels
1018787
Ice-class coatings are specialized protective coatings designed to withstand the harsh conditions encountered by ships operating in polar regions and ice-infested waters. These coatings must provide excellent resistance to both corrosion and ice-induced abrasion. Some key requirements for coatings considered as ice-class coatings are as following:
Ice Abrasion Resistance
Corrosion Protection
Low Friction
Impact resistance
Flexibility
UV resistance
High adhesion resistance
Low Environmental Impact
Easy Application and Maintenance
Compliance with Regulations
Hydrophobic Properties
Non-toxic
The purpose of this project is to develop a coating with high abrasion and biofouling resistance using eco-friendly components.
