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.

Technical Evaluation of a Distributed Ethernet Switching Architecture for Defence Applications
1040027
This project will conduct a technical evaluation of company's disaggregated optical Ethernet switching architecture, for defence-relevant applications, such as mobile command posts, deployable data centres, and space-based systems. Sovereign distributed and scalable switching technologies are essential to achieve the modernization of modern defence infrastructure outlined in Canada’s Department of National Defence Departmental and NATO’s Science for Peace and Security Key Priorities. As a disaggregated switching fabric architecture, the technology can enhance resilience by removing centralized bottlenecks and single points of failure for tactical communications and platform-level networking environments.
