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.

Quantum error correction for characterizing quantum noise and understanding theoretical physics
1027856
This project explores quantum error correction as a cutting-edge quantum technology for noise characterization tasks and study its interplay with theoretical physics including quantum matter and quantum gravity. The first part aims to design quantum error correction (QEC) protocols for learning correlated quantum noise, leveraging properties of quantum errorcorrecting codes to uncover high-weight noise components. Additionally, QEC methods for suppressing noise on ancillary qubits for a series of ancilla-assisted quantum learning algorithms will be investigated. In the second part, quantum coding theory techniques will be pursed towards addressing fundamental questions in theoretical physics, namely in quantum matter and gravity. Potential realizations of fault-tolerant quantum computing tasks will be sought, inspired by this project’s theoretical findings. These efforts are expected to advance the development of noise characterization and fault-tolerant quantum computation, while deepening the understanding of quantum information in theoretical physics
