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.

New engineer hire
992264
The intent is to employ a new graduate full-time. The objective is to accelerate her training. This is to be completed while further developing a metallurgical engineering training program. The constructed training program has been designed to teach metallurgy and failure analysis in a much more organized, controlled manner and includes independent modules. To the knowledge of the Steel Image, it will be the first of its kind.

Low Temperature Toughness Steel Process Development
910180
Steel brittle fracture is a problem that puts billions of dollars worth of industrial facilities in cold climates at risk of life loss, lost production and environmental incidents. Although it is well known that steel becomes brittle at cold temperatures, what metallurgical factors affect the temperature at which steel becomes brittle is not well understood and therefore, not optimized. The objective of this project is to (1) develop improved processing parameters to take commonly available steels and optimize their cold temperature durability/toughness and (2) provide solutions to mitigate the risk of brittle fracture for steel already in service.
