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.

Proof of concept - AI Cubing

Agreement Number:

1033722

Duration: from Jul 14, 2025 to Mar 2, 2026
Description:

This project aims to derive three key components required for the development of an AI-based pallet assessment and cubing engine. First, to structure domain expertise by modeling pallet and product properties. Secondly, to validate the technical feasibility of a physical simulation to assess pattern stability. Finally, to demonstrate that an AI algorithm can learn to generate or evaluate patterns from a limited set of rules. These steps are fundamental to laying the foundations for an intelligent, reliable and adaptable machine capable of supporting robust, accurate and scalable automated palletizing solutions.
