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.

AI algorithm for optimizing offers and requests for quotes
1011598
The firm currently has an algorithm for prioritizing bids received as part of a call for tenders, based on their quality. The aim of the project is to add a machine learning (AI) component that will be used to continuously optimize the weight of the parameters. Each home selected for rental will enable the algorithm to learn how much weight to give to each parameter. The algorithm can then adjust the weights of these parameters according to identified market needs. Over time, machine learning will be able to select the best accommodation for the policyholder, greatly improving the algorithm's efficiency, as well as its commercial potential.
